Make an Emergency Plan
As you prepare your plan, tailor your plans and supplies to your specific daily living needs and responsibilities.
- Discuss your needs and responsibilities and how people in your network can assist each other with communication, care of children, business, pets or specific needs like operating medical equipment.
- Think about different kinds of emergencies, like a house fire, snow storm, power outage, flood. What supplies would you need in each situation? Where would you go if you needed to leave your home?
- Write the plan down
- Talk about how to evacuate
- Consider using the Red Cross Emergency! App
