The Emergency Preparedness Guide was developed by Adrian Olteanu, Volunteers Coordinator at the SMURD Foundation in Romania.
SMURD — Romania's Mobile Emergency Service for Resuscitation and Extrication.
Give it to participants before they travel. Print the response cards and keep them with the flow charts.
