Family Plan

Family Plan

Plan Ahead: 
It's a good idea to be on the same page with your family as to what to do in case of an emergency.  Make sure to take this list out every couple of months to review how you stand, and to make sure all the little details are fresh in everyones mind. 

□ meet with family members to discuss how to respond to the dangers of fire, severe weather, earthquakes, and other emergencies.
□ find the safe spots in your home for each type of disaster
□ discuss what to do about power outages and injuries
□ draw a floor plan of your home and mark two escape routes from each room
□ post emergency phone numbers near telephones
□ teach children how and when to call 911, police, and fire
□ instruct family members to turn on the radio for information
□ pick one out-of-state and one local friend/family member to call in a disaster
□ teach children the phone numbers
□ pick two reunion locations, one right outside of your home, and one away from your neighborhood in case you cannot return
□ take a basic first aid and CPR class
