Emergency Preparedness Week
It is essential to be ready for emergencies and disasters. You can take some simple steps now to prepare yourself. To be well prepared, you must understand what actions to take, where to go, and have sufficient supplies for a week or longer. The supplies should include food, water, medications, and essential documents. Also, don't forget to include supplies for your pets.
Preparing in advance can help you stay safe and comfortable and return to your everyday life and work more quickly. It can also help others because emergency responders can focus on helping those who need it the most.
