HAZELWOOD, MO (ST. LOUIS COUNTY)
GKN AEROSPACE BERT TEAM

We are a business with approximately 1500 employees and we have 3 shifts. We have an Emergency Response Program with 11 trained First Responders in the American Red Cross Emergency Response Course. They are also trained as our CERT Team or, as we call it, BERT (Business Emergency Response Team). Additionally, we have another 44 First Responders trained in the American Red Cross Workplace Standard First Aid/CPR/AED, Oxygen Administration and all responders receive training in Blood-borne Pathogens and Intro to Hazmat. As part of the company's efforts to take care of its employees, there are 14 AED's, 16 emergency oxygen bottles, (2) emergency trauma medical golf carts and trauma cabinets throughout the plant. We established an Emergency Medical Agreement with DePaul Hospital's Emergency Services and Dr. Kevin Mitchell acts as our Medical Control Officer assisted by the EMS Director Joan Eberhardt and EMS Manager Joe Piskulic. They also provide all of our emergency protocols. GKN also has (1) Security Officer/EMT assigned to each shift that responds to any injury beyond the scope of care for a responder.

The American Red Cross acts as consultant for the company in areas of Health and Safety and Disaster Services.

We also have an Emergency Preparedness Safety Coordinator. In addition to teaching the CERT training, she teaches all of the American Red Cross Health and Safety courses, acts as the AED Coordinator and assists the Security Manager with the company's Emergency Plan.

There are (3) CERT (BERT) Team Classes being taught for 2004: (5) more for 1st shift, (6) responders for 2nd shift and (5) for 3rd shift. That would give us 27.

Because this program has been received so well throughout GKN's operations it is being considered for some of its other locations.

ROCK COMMUNITY FIRE DISTRICT, MO (JEFFERSON COUNTY)

Rock Community will be assisting the Jefferson County EMA with a county-wide roll-out of CERT. We will organize the training effort in the East Zone and assist with coordinating the county-wide training initiative. The 2005 training schedule should include 3-4 provider courses as well as participation in regional refresher exercises. We will also assist with organizing the "Region C" CERT Coalition consisting of several CERT program participants from around the St. Louis area. We hope to regionalize the CERT training as we work together to share resources, instructors, discuss best practices, etc. Members of the coalition thus far consist of various emergency management and first response agencies along with corporate CERT programs. We look forward to working with all of our "Partners in Preparedness".
