From the Department of Health and Human Services:
There is excellent information on emergency preparedness
available from
the Missouri Center for Emergency Response and Terrorism (CERT) developed
for medical professionals. It is a compilation of web based resources on
chemical, biological, and radiological threats. These resources are quite
extensive, written at the level of the medical professional, and the address is:
http://www.dhss.mo.gov/BT_Response/BT_Response.html
It is suggested that members may want to request at least one hard copy of
the information in CD format in case the web is down during a threat event.
This CD could be for their department or a personal copy. The contact person is
Sharon Eicholz at
sharon.eicholz@dhss.mo.gov and her phone is 573-526-4768.
The Center for Emergency Response and Terrorism is the major planning
organization for the state's medical response in the event of a disaster or
terrorism threat. Their web site would be a useful review for members who want
to better understand preparedness planning for the state.
