• first stay prepared: The impact of any emergency or disaster can be reduced by being prepared and knowing what to do before, during, and after the emergency. Listen to local media to find out forecasts and emergency instructions. Learn the emergency plans at your workplace. Also learn the evacuation route in the community. Take a first aid course. You may not have access to professional medical care.

         

Evacuation

• Make a family plan: Families should organize a plan for what to do, where to go and safety precautions during a natural disaster. This plan must be in writing and each family member should receive a copy. Go from room to room in the house and imagine what would happen to each of the objects during disasters. Then identifies potential 'safe', as under desks during earthquakes or basements during tornadoes areas. Identifies all possible outputs that could be used in case of natural disaster. Select a potential alternative meeting point outside your area in case you separate yourself from the family. Also, select a contact located outside your area for everyone to communicate through the contact chosen. Teach family members who are old enough to turn off gas, electricity and water from the main switches.

• Stores supplies: Always have a minimum of five days food and water available for each family member. Water should be stored in closed containers and food should be composed of non-perishable ingredients such as canned or sealed food packages. Keep an emergency kit at hand with a battery-powered radio and flashlight, extra batteries, candles and matches. It also includes a first aid kit, fire fighting equipment for small fires, a heater or solar cells and special medications that may be needed, such as insulin.

• Evacuated: Keep a safe fireproof and water with important family information, such as vital records, mortgage papers, medical records, insurance information and birth certificates and other irreplaceable items. Medical devices should always take them with you. Listen to radio and television to see if your area has to evacuate. Then use the recommended travel routes and salt immediately. Once in a safe area, stay there until the authorities report that it is safe to return.

That's why you have to be prepared for whatever happens around us, and that Mother Nature brings unimaginable surprises. It may be today, tomorrow or in a few months or years, but a cautious person survives any situation. The downside is losing everything they have worked. Having to start from scratch. But everything in life is hopeless except death. And thanking God, if a situation like this it survives.
