Family Emergency Preparedness Plan

This week’s ‪#‎5PointTip continues our series on things to do BEFORE a disaster strikes. #2 is “Have an Emergency Plan”.

  • First, put together an evacuation plan for your home and an emergency supplies kit for your home and vehicles. A list of ideas and ways to get kits can be found at http://www.utah.gov/beready/index.html it also gives you links to other great tips and ideas.
  • Although we specialize in disasters that happen in your home, sometimes your family may not be together if a disaster strikes, so it’s important to have a plan set in place for when one does strike.
  • Plans on where to meet if communications go down, or where to meet if a fire starts in your home.

These are all things to make sure you have a plan in place so that if a disaster does strike, you’ll be better prepared. More info can also be found at www.ready.gov Look for more ‪#‎5PointTips as we continue our series on things to do BEFORE a disaster strikes.
