Family Emergency Plan
In the event of a disaster, rescue teams may be slow to arrive in your area. You are, therefore, ultimately responsible for your own safety. The best way to prepare is to make a family emergency plan.
It is also important to know what to do before, during and after an emergency or disaster.
