On Tuesday, Oct. 6, UMass Lowell's Campus Emergency Response Team (CERT) team will complete its CERT fall training with a cumulative final disaster exercise. During the final exercise, CERT members will put their emergency preparedness skills to the test in a simulated real-life scenario. These skills include wound packing, Stop the Bleed, triaging, tripping and other skills used in real-world disasters or daily life.
We are looking for actors to assist us. We use makeup, moulage and special effects to make the training environment as realistic as possible. Actors will serve as patients, concerned citizens or in other roles during the exercise. No prior acting experience is required; all are welcome.
- Date: Tuesday, Oct. 6
- Time: 5:30 – 9 p.m.
- Location: TBD (will be sent to all volunteers before the exercise)
- Volunteer:Complete the volunteer form
Thank you for your support.
Best regards,
Emily DeLuca
President of UML's CERT
