In lieu with the changing climate and the unpredictable weather of our country, safety preparedness should be everybody's concern. Especially now that the rainy season is coming up fast.
In response to this, our friends from the Search and Rescue Unit, 15 Infantry Division Ready Reserve located at Fort Bonifacio, Taguig City conducted their annual family-centered camporee which aims to deliver and train junior responders in disaster preparedness planning and response program in a fun, age-specific approach last May 25-26, 2013.
Fun-filled activities surprised the junior responders who will not only be trained in basic first aid, CPR for kids, victim transfer, family emergency planning, but will also receive outdoor training on camp management, tent-pitching, rappelling, and knot tying. Provided these kids undergo military-based training, they will also need to perform reveille and morning exercises.

These days, training at least one responder at home can provide fast first-aid delivery in such circumstances when it is needed. Parents and their children should see the advantage of planning their emergency policy and basic equipment at home because these actions do save lives, even their neighbors.
