Many individuals with disabilities and their caregivers have questions for Emergency Responders about what to do or what happens in case of an emergency and/or rescue situation. The opposite is also true for Emergency Responders and how to best interact with caregivers or individuals who have disabilities they may or may not be familiar with or trained to assist.

In the first video, emergency responders answer questions from individuals with disabilities and caregivers. In the second video individuals with disabilities and caregivers answer questions from emergency responders.
