Oh,
the Places You Will Go...
|
|
|
Designate two places to meet after an emergency with your
family. Identify a location right outside your
home,
in case of a sudden household emergency such as a fire
or earthquake. The second location should be outside
your neighborhood, in the event that it is not safe to
stay near or return to your home. Remember, things may
change drastically during an emergency. In some cases
you may not be able to use the route from your house
to the evacuation site. Actually walk the route to understand
the danger points and check safety. Draw a detailed map
from your house to the evacuation site, marking danger
points and adding helpful information.
