Build a household emergency plan

Know local hazards, plan family communications and identify safe meeting points. Keep emergency contact details accessible offline.

A 72-hour supply checklist

Consider safe drinking water, shelf-stable food, medications, first-aid supplies, lighting, batteries, hygiene items, a radio, documents and supplies for children or pets.

Plan for power interruptions

Know how to charge devices, store food safely and use backup power. Never operate fuel-burning generators indoors or near windows.

Practice and update

Review supplies periodically, replace expired items and practice household plans. Follow official local emergency instructions when events occur.

Safety first: Projects involving potable water, electrical systems, structures, fire or food preservation require careful attention to established safety standards and local regulations.
