Approximately 70.000 dead people120.000 injured-heavily injured people 400.000 lightly injured people
Scene in Marmara following the 1999 earthquake...
Equipped with essential knowledge, skills and tools
To respond immediately
Disasters that may occur in their region
Until professional assistance arrives.
DISASTER VOLUNTEERS
DISASTER VOLUNTEERS (continued...)
The rationale behind training
community members as volunteer
response teams is to prepare
individuals, first to help themselves
and their families and then neighbors
in the event of a disaster.
DISASTER VOLUNTEERS (continued...)nce emergency services workers
will not be able to help everyone immediately, people with training and practice and by working as a team,will be able to make a difference in reducing the loss of life in the immediate aftermath of a disaster.
Si
Civil Defence workers tried to reach by walking to E.Q survivals in Sichuan/China mountains.
DISASTER VOLUNTEERS (continued...)
Trained community disaster volunteer is not meant to replace the professional first responders.
It is intended as a community self-help program to be used in
times of disaster until the professionals arrive.
DISASTER VOLUNTEERS (continued...)
It provides people on the scene, who have basic training in
first-aid and triage
light search and rescue
small fire suppression
