How can I be ready for an emergency?

5/15/2022

 
​Prepare for Emergencies
  • Know Your Risks. Make Your Plan. Improve Your Outcome. 
  • Prepare for emergencies before the crisis or disaster impacts your family or the community. 
  • The Colorado Springs Office of Emergency Management provides great resource to help residents get ready for a bad day. Topics include:
    • Know Your hazards (flash flooding, wildfire, severe winter weather)
    • Sign up for Emergency Alerts. Not all emergency alerts provide the same information so it’s important to understand the types of alerts out there and what they provide. 
    • Make a Plan. Creating plans for family communications, loved ones with special needs, household matters, financial documents and evacuation are all part of being well prepared.  
    • Build A Kit. A disaster supplies kit is simply a collection of basic items your household may need in the event of an emergency.
  • Visit the site for in-depth discussion and handy checklists at https://coloradosprings.gov/office-emergency-management/page/preparedness

Plan to Evacuate BEFORE You Must
  • Many kinds of emergencies can cause you to have to evacuate. In some cases, you may have a day or two to prepare while other situations might call for an immediate evacuation. Planning is vital to making sure that you can evacuate quickly and safely no matter what the circumstances.
  • The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has many resources at its site to help plan for emergencies year-round, 24/7.
