Based on the false report of an active shooter at Lake City High School in Coeur d'Alene, it is clear that schools and institutions must take proactive steps to prepare for emergency situations. One such step is the implementation of active-shooter training exercises, as demonstrated by Biola University. Such training can help equip students and faculty with the knowledge and skills necessary to respond effectively in a real-life situation, reducing the impact of such incidents on those involved.

Another crucial aspect of preparing for emergencies is to ensure that the right equipment and resources are available on-site, as demonstrated by the Chicago Cubs' initiative to install trauma kits in Wrigley Field. This move can save lives in the event of a bleeding emergency, and the training of staff and associates to use them can enable immediate bleeding control until professional help arrives. Such measures are crucial in reducing the impact of emergencies on those involved and promoting public safety.

In conclusion, it is clear that proactive measures are necessary to prepare for emergencies such as active-shooter situations and bleeding emergencies. Institutions should take the initiative to implement training exercises and provide the necessary equipment and resources to ensure the safety of their students and staff. The initiatives taken by Biola University and the Chicago Cubs provide excellent examples of how such measures can be implemented, and other institutions should follow suit to reduce the impact of emergencies on their communities.
