Once warned, CPP assists in sheltering, rescuing and offering immediate medical attention. CPP is heavily involved in post disaster recuperation and extensive rehabilitation operations. Furthermore, we are continuously engaged in active development and implementation of BDRCS disaster preparedness strategies and schemes.
