Disaster First Aid

In the first critical minutes and hours of a catastrophic emergency such as earthquake, tornado, hurricane, or terrorist attack, all normal 911 Rescue Medical Emergency Services will be overwhelmed. There will not be enough immediate help for all of those who need it. It will take 24 hours to 3 days to bring additional help from outside areas. Do you know what to do when 911 can't come?
