Post What is an Emergency Response System?
hello
An Emergency Response System (ERS) is a general term for any number of systems used in response to an emergency. These can range from a nationally organized response system down to a Personal Emergency Response System (PERS).

One Emergency Response System most people are familiar with is the 60-second drill occasionally tested over broadcast television and radio. In the event of an emergency, instructions would be issued to help safeguard the public. On the civil level, the city’s law enforcement, fire departments and other emergency personnel commonly drill for disasters of varying types in order to have a functioning Emergency Response System in place. Some of the components of preparing for a catastrophe include establishing potential evacuation routes, organizing triage plans for large numbers of injured and planning for the establishment of temporary shelters.
Thanks
