Description:
NBCN Disaster Relief stands for Nuclear, Biological, Chemical, and Natural Disaster Relief. We work to education the public that these disasters can acure any where at any time, without notice. Alot or people in the area seem to be under the impression that because we are not that popular of a state, we wont be effected. When in fact, nuclear blasts can travel thousands of miles, biological warfare will spread through every state if airborne. Chemicals are all airborne and tonados happen here all the time. "Just not in our areas."
I find it important to educate the surrounding public with the knowledge and staight facts they need so they are prepared for these situations and have an decent supply of food and water to keep their family and pets alive before Paramedics and the Red Cross can get to them next. Which could be weeks in some situations.
Being a licensed paramedic myself and a Red Cross representative, the elderly, very sick and injured are helped first. You wouldn't want to be in a disaster zone and helped last because others need more attention and you have no food or lights.
We would not only provide informational services, but products as well such as generators, military or freeze dried food, water, medication, filtration devices, gas masks, suits, and more.
