**Paragraph 1: ** JAKE

Acceptable risk, a term denoting the level of loss a society is willing to tolerate, forms
the foundation for understanding disaster management. Biological hazards, originating from
organic processes, underscore the importance of recognizing and addressing threats in our
environment. Building codes and regulations serve as protective measures, ensuring that
structures are resilient and can withstand potential disasters. Capacity, the combined strengths
and resources within a community, is vital for resilience. Efforts in capacity building focus on
developing human skills and societal infrastructures for effective disaster response. Basic first
aid is a fundamental skill aimed at providing immediate medical care to individuals facing
sudden injuries or illnesses. It encompasses a set of simple yet crucial steps and techniques that
can make a significant difference in emergency situations. The four thematic areas of disaster
risk management offer a structured approach to prevention, preparedness, response, and
recovery. Basic disaster preparedness and response training involves risk awareness, teamwork,
plan testing, and updating procedures. Basic first aid covers immediate medical care in
emergencies, including steps for emergency situations, bandaging, burns, CPR, and the essential
items for a first aid kit. This comprehensive learning experience equips individuals with the
knowledge and skills needed to contribute to resilient communities and respond effectively to
unforeseen challenges.

**Paragraph 2: ** EZRA

Climate change, referring to long-term alterations in a region's climate, is a critical factor


influencing the frequency and intensity of disasters. Coping capacity, the means by which
people or organizations utilize available resources, becomes essential for adapting to changing
conditions. Countermeasures, taken to reduce disaster risk, highlight the proactive steps
needed for disaster resilience. Understanding these terms equips individuals and communities
to navigate and mitigate potential hazards. In emergency situations, three primary steps form
the foundation of basic first aid. First, it is essential to check the scene for potential dangers to
ensure the safety of both the victim and the rescuer. Second, calling for medical help becomes
a priority, ensuring professional assistance is on the way. These initial steps lay the groundwork
for a coordinated and effective response. Addressing injuries often involves the application of a
first aid bandage. The process includes holding the injured area steady, gently but firmly
wrapping the bandage around the affected limb or body part to cover the wound, and securing
it with sticky tape or safety pins. It's crucial to strike a balance, ensuring the bandage is secure
but not so tight that it hampers blood flow. Burns require specialized first aid measures.
Covering a large area of skin affected by burns, especially those on the face, groin, buttocks,
hands, or feet, is a key step. This care is extended when burns result from contact with
chemicals or electricity, emphasizing the need for caution and specific interventions.

**Paragraph 3: ** JAN DANIEL

Disaster, a serious disruption to community functioning, prompts the need for


systematic processes. Disaster risk, indicating potential losses, requires management to
minimize vulnerabilities. Disaster risk management and reduction involve administrative
decisions to create a comprehensive framework for handling disasters. Early warning systems
provide timely information crucial for preparedness. Ecosystems, complex relationships
between living organisms and their environment, underscore the delicate balance in nature. In
emergency situations, three primary steps form the foundation of basic first aid. First, it is
essential to check the scene for potential dangers to ensure the safety of both the victim and
the rescuer. Second, calling for medical help becomes a priority, ensuring professional
assistance is on the way. These initial steps lay the groundwork for a coordinated and effective
response. The four thematic areas of disaster risk management offer a structured approach to
prevention, preparedness, response, and recovery. Basic disaster preparedness and response

bandaging, burns, CPR, and the essential items for a first aid kit. This comprehensive learning
experience equips individuals with the knowledge and skills needed to contribute to resilient
communities and respond effectively to unforeseen challenges.

**Paragraph 4: ** JOHN

Ethical principles, including solidarity and joint responsibility, emphasize the collective
approach needed for effective disaster risk reduction. The four thematic areas of disaster risk
management—prevention, preparedness, response, and recovery—provide a structured guide
for addressing various stages of a disaster. These principles and areas form the ethical and
organizational backbone for responsible disaster management. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation
(CPR) is a life-saving skill included in basic first aid. This involves placing both hands on the
center of the victim's chest, compressing it to the beat of the song "Staying Alive" by the Bee
Gees, and continuing until professional help arrives. Additionally, a well-equipped first aid kit is
indispensable. It should include essential items such as scissors, tweezers, a thermometer, a
breathing barrier, an instant cold pack, a blanket, and a first aid manual. These items ensure
that individuals providing first aid are adequately equipped to handle a variety of situations.
The four thematic areas of disaster risk management offer a structured approach to prevention,
preparedness, response, and recovery. Basic disaster preparedness and response training

**Paragraph 5: ** JOHN LUIS

Basic disaster preparedness and response training emphasizes risk awareness,


teamwork, and plan testing. First aid, a crucial skill, involves immediate medical care during
emergencies. Simple steps, such as checking for danger and calling for help, are essential in
emergency situations. Understanding how to provide first aid, including bandaging and CPR,
equips individuals to respond effectively. A well-prepared first aid kit, inclusive of essential
items, ensures readiness for unforeseen events. Hazard analysis identifies and monitors
dangers, and mitigation involves measures to limit adverse impacts. Preparedness and
prevention address actions taken in advance to ensure effective response, raising public
awareness and disseminating information. Recovery involves decisions post-disaster, and
relief/response provides immediate assistance. Resilience refers to the adaptive capacity of a
system or community. Risk assessment analyzes the nature and extent of risk, and vulnerability
considers community characteristics. In conclusion, these basic terms and principles, explained
in simple language, form a comprehensive foundation for understanding disaster management.
The integration of ethical considerations, thematic areas, and practical skills empowers
individuals and communities to navigate and respond to various challenges effectively. The four
thematic areas of disaster risk management offer a structured approach to prevention,
preparedness, response, and recovery. Basic disaster preparedness and response training
involves risk awareness, teamwork, plan testing, and updating procedures. Basic first aid covers
immediate medical care in emergencies, including steps for emergency situations, bandaging,
