What?
No, we haven't gone bonkers.....just wanted to provide you with another instructional acronym to use when discussing the act of being prepared.
YOYO stands for You're On Your Own ....the ASSE refers to YOYO 24 or the time between an emergency situation and the time help/relief becomes available......you can see from recent events such as Hurricane Katrina that this could be extended and at minimum you might use YOYO 72 for personal situations....
What does this mean for the average citizen? In short in means that safety professionals - public and private have recognized that the reality is we the people have to get our collective act together in order to pull through some of what life, nature and those crazy zealots are dishing out....
So, if it suits you or your organization ....be prepared for YOYO72 at minimum.
