Household Emergency Plan
A household emergency plan is a great way to prepare you and your family for unexpected events that may occur
at your household! You never know what could happen and you need to be ready or prepared for anything!
Here are a few ideas to get you started:
-Know what numbers to call in an emergency
-Know what exits are the best for each room
-Know where the fire extinguishers are located (read entry about fire extinguishers)
-Know where the first aid kit is located and how to use it
-Contact your local fire department to find out about Fire Escape Lessons and Plans!
-Know where your local hospitals are located
-Know the best place to go in your house or local area for a hazardous weather event
If you have kids, make sure they are aware of these items or ideas and know how to use them.
A household emergency can never planned, but you can plan ahead to be more prepared for them!
Get your family together at least once a year and review your plan. If you move to a new area than establish a new
plan. A new place sometimes means new hazards!
