Question:
How do we prepare our church to handle medical emergencies?
Answer:
You should prepare in advance by obtaining first aid training for key leaders. You can also recruit medical professionals (Dr, PAs, paramedics, nurses, EMTs, etc.) in your congregation to be available should a medical emergency arise. Every church should have and maintain medical supplies & equipment on site. Finally, communication devices like 2-way radios should be used to alert medical responders if a your church campus is large.
