Since July is Bioterrorism/Disaster Education & Awareness Month it’s a great time to set up a plan if you don’t already have one. If you do have a plan, now is a great time to review it for updates and talk about it as a family.
Having an emergency plan and kit available means that you and your family will know what to do if a disaster happens, and you’ll be equipped with the right tools to keep yourselves safe.
If you need help creating your plan look at the Red Cross Family Disaster Plan [pdf] or the FEMA Are You Ready Guide, which can show you how to set up your plan.
The Greater Manchester Chapter of the American Red Cross is involved in providing Disaster Services to the community, Disaster Planning information and details on what should be in your emergency kit.
Hopefully you’ll never have to use your plan or kit, but having them prepared in advance will ensure that you remain safe if you do find yourself in a disaster situation.
