MDA IS ALWAYS TRAINING AND TAKING PART IN EXERCISES TO KEEP ISRAEL'S PEOPLE SAFE |
TEL AVIV (July 22, 2010) -- To keep Israel’s people safe, Magen David Adom emergency response personnel regularly undergo training, from classroom instruction to drills.
Last month, the National Disaster Response Team of MDA participated in a special course covering areas that Magen David Adom needs to address as a Red Cross Society: Assess the needs for humanitarian help following a disaster; prepare an action plan; and coordinate the activities of units and aid from the IFRC (International Federation of the Red Cross and Red Crescent) as well as from National Societies.
In May, Magen David Adom played a key role in the national “Turning Point 4” drill, in cooperation with the Israel Police forces, fire brigade and the Home Front command.
