Health Tip of the Week
Prepare the Whole Family
This is a great time to evaluate how ready you are for an emergency.  Don't forget about the people who depend on you.  Are there children, older adults, people with disabilities, special medical needs or pets in your life?  Here are some suggestions for how you can be ready to help the people you care about during an emergency.
  • When building an emergency kit, include special medication, medical supplies, food and water for pets, and comfort items for children.  A favorite toy or blanket can go a long way to help calm nerves during a disaster.  Have a plan for how you would provide care if you were evacuated or had to shelter in place.  Share your emergency plans with those you care for and make sure they are prepared and know what to do in an emergency.
  • Talk to your neighbors about disasters in your area and how best to prepare and respond.  Reach out to older relatives and talk to them about their plan for a disaster.  Have a conversation with your kids about emergency preparedness and get them involved in your disaster plan in a way they can understand.
  • Talk to neighbors or coworkers about forming support networks.  A support network is a great way for people who are more vulnerable due to physical, medical, or other limitations to get extra assistance in an emergency.  Learn how you can help people around you during an emergency and make sure people around you are aware of additional help you may need.
  • The local chapter of the American Red Cross can provide more information about the kinds of natural disasters you need to be aware of in your area (hurricanes, wildfires, etc.). Often, the people who provide the most immediate and important help during a disaster are not trained medical or emergency response professionals, but simply people who were closest to the disaster and pitched in to help.  Take a first aid or disaster response training course and be ready in case that person is you! These courses, often no longer than a weekend, could make the difference in helping save someone's life after an emergency.
