Preparedness Plans


Family Preparedness Plan

Get PREPared!  ---  Make a Plan

Disaster can strike quickly and without warning. It can force you to evacuate your neighborhood or confine you to your home. What would you do if basic services--water, gas, electricity or telephones--were cut off? Local officials and relief workers will be on the scene after a disaster, but they cannot reach everyone right away. Therefore, the best way to make your family and your home safer is to be prepared before disaster strikes.

February Tip of the Month

February Tip: It is very important to be proactive rather than reactivewhen an emergency arises. The more PREPared you are, the more you can help yourself and others. Ask yourself…what have you done to PREPare?

Pets & Animals in Emergency Preparedness Plan

Karen Holstead has provided PREP a Pet Preparedness Checklist (PDF) "Of course the primary responsibility falls on the pet owners. Besides having a supply of food and water for your pet set aside for an emergency, next would be a kennel, cage or crate. No shelter is able to take in loose pets and let them all run together. What about medications your pet needs?"

 Important monthly tip:

 

Although our weather has been unseasonably warm this past winter and spring is very near, remember... Remain

prepared in the event of unexpected snowfall or power outage. If you

have a generator, run it monthly. Keep emergency supplies in your car

trunk until the chance of snow is well past. Remember, if you need

help during a heavy snowfall or long term power outage, please call -

PREP at 945-PREP for assistance.

 


Volunteer one day a month.

 

 

 

Remember.... PREP is YOU
