This is the CERTS in our humble beginnings, aren't we adorable!
Action shots of the CERTS at work putting out a fire. (yes the nice firemen let us do it over and over to get cute pictures!)
Here we are at the end of the final, yes we did have to take a final to become certified. Let's be honest it was hard and during the medical portion I think some of us wanted to CRY (yes, it was me). Disasters are no laughing matter. Like I said...we are WONDER WOMEN.
P.S. This was one of the most fun and rewarding things I have done. The final really showed me that I could handle it. I heart my CERTS!

I would rather die in the street than have any of these individuals attempt to save my life. Please leave it to the professionals.
During the course of your "training":
1. More fires were started and uncontrolled than were extinguished.
2. Three people died and 2 were left in critical condition following your "CPR and airway management" drills.
3. Accidents were handled on an 11 minute delay than that of a normal disaster due to improper triage.
These are only a few of the cited disasters that these "CERTS" either caused or were unable to contain and prevent. They should have taught the bunch of you to spell the words negligent and lawsuit.
Awesome. I definately want you around if anything happens. Looks like you had fun while learning good things to know.
I don't know who that mean person was that left that first comment, but watch out! I guess they were anonymous bc if they were in a diaster situation, they wouldn't want us to know who they were. Of course CERT's aren't professionals. CERT's are trained to be first responders because the professionals can't be everywhere!Anyway, love the photos! :) YOu rock D'nell!
