Ensure your family's safety during emergencies by creating a comprehensive plan that covers various scenarios. Start by discussing potential situations with your loved ones and identifying secure locations within your home. Assemble a well-stocked supply kit, including essentials and personal items, and keep it updated. Establish a communication strategy, including an out-of-town contact and teaching family members alternate ways to stay connected. Conduct regular drills, learn first aid and CPR, and keep important contact information accessible. Stay informed about local risks, develop an evacuation strategy, and practice it with your family to be fully prepared.
