I'm sorry, but I have to say that you can't fill out application forms by using other people's answers! Well, you can but if you get the interview and they ask you to explain, what are you going to say then? "Sorry, I just have to log on to Yahoo! Answers!!!"

The first priority is rescue.  Assisting people in safely getting out of the accident vehicle is the first thing that needs to be done.  Firefighters are prepared for that, and after the rescue comes medical.  Also, firefighters are prepared to do first aid if necessary until the EMT's get there.

What kind of help you need ?

I would try to make the language simpler and give some more information about why you need the leave.  Here is an example:\n\nI need to take emergency leave because my father-in-law is seriously ill and I am the only family member available to take care of him.  I hope to return to work on October 11, 2006.

Ask the emergency people to request crisis counselors to also respond... they might be already depending on the situation.

An explosion is an example.

The most tramatizing was two months ago. January 9 to be exact. I woke up 7 that morning to say good-bye to my dad and his brother, they were going to Atlanta for my dads dr. appointment. I went back to my room and like 10 minutes later I look out side and my uncles car was still there. I went back out in the den and my dad was on the floor.His brother or my uncle was doing cpr on him, about 30 minutes later the fire rescue and parimedics showed up. They worked on him for another 30 minutes and shocked him a few times to get his heart beating again, but it didn't work. I believe he died before the ambulance even showed up, but they didn't call it till he was at the hospital at 9:00 am.

of course.  certain situations will get the best of you and things will be said and done... best thing to do is try to resolve them quickly.  all parties involved should understand that these things happen in the heat of the moment.

There are a lot of interesting explanations for the response to Katrina, and there is some truth in all of them. The breach of the levee definitely made everything much worse than it might have been otherwise. However, the reality is that every year that part of the country is hit hard with hurricanes, and every year the country holds its breath wondering where they will hit and how many there will be. Every disaster response organization including the Red Cross say that every one should be prepared to rely on themselves for at least 72 hours after an event because it may take that long for emergency personnel to arrive. (For two reasons 1) emergency response personnel may not be able to get into an area right away, and 2) the number of people in need may exceed the immediately available resources). Family preparation is not the responsibility of the government. People should prepare themselves - especially in a place where certain disasters repeat themselves on a regular basis. Communities are responsible for preparing for themselves and responding. Also, the question exists as to whether FEMA is a first responder department, or one that is mandated to assist regions in the aftermath of a disaster. And actually, my understanding is that one problem was that there were so many people running around trying to help that it was impossible to maintain communication lines. And many of the people who were trying to help didn't know what they were doing. It is more helpful to refrain from seeking blame, and to invest energy into one's own community and pantry. Are you ready should an unexpected event hit you? Are you ready and able to help the elderly, handicapped, or single parent with children who live next door or down the block? Do you have water and, at least, a few candy bars tucked away just in case? Do you have some kind of plan for your kids if there is an emergency? Take care of yourselves and you will make it much easier for everyone.

Depends on what you yell: "Are you alright?" might be more appropriate than "Hurry up!!" especially because you don't know what's taking so long. The person could be hysterically upset over something (breakup, death of loved one) or violently ill and need you to call 911.

Are you struggling with a tough situation? If so, this is your problem. Try to handle it.

Yes- I witnessed a pedestrian get hit by a car - people just stared at me for a minute - I knew first aid so I was barking orders for someone to PLEASE call 9-1-1.  Finally someone re-focused and rad to a nearby plaza to call.  Luckily an off duty paramedic drove by and stopped to take over.  I was relieved because the man appeared to be going into shock on me and I wasn't confident that I really knew what I was doing!

Can't answer in detail unless you explain what the crisis is. If you need help right now call 911

Think of anything and everything that can go wrong and anything and everything that people might be bothered by and address those issues.  Always have a contingency plan (like if it rains, like if somthing is not in stock...)  Make a list of everything that has to be done...start planning way before the event.
