The following 2 lists are included in our policy and procedures manual.  In addition our team maintains 6 medical packs, with a variety of bandages, glucose, splints, scissors, sterile water, etc. (that also include disposable cameras and garbage bags). One of these go out with each team.  Each team is issued a radio and we now practice writing down all cell phone numbers by our name as we build our search groups
