We cannot control when, where, or how disasters strike. But we can control how prepared we are to deal with a disaster. There is a fine line between order and chaos and sometimes that line can be measured in seconds. When every second counts, having a plan and the tools to see that plan through are crucial to survival.
An act of war is not the only threat from man. Dams burst, power plants go down, pipelines explode, oil spills occur, and other man-made structures and facilities can fail, resulting in disaster. Outbreaks of sickness and disease, pandemics could also warrant an evacuation.
Our emergency kits are packed with survival essentials and is an invaluable and priceless resource. In our unstable and unpredictable world economy, we would be foolish to think there is no chance of a terrorist or military attack from forces domestic or foreign that could possibly force us to evacuate our own home without a moments notice.
WHAT IS AN EMERGENCY KIT?
After an emergency, you may need to survive on your own for several days. Being prepared means having your own food, water and other supplies to last for several days. A disaster supplies kit is a collection of basic items your household may need in the event of an emergency.
Make sure your emergency kit is stocked with the items on the checklist below. to take with you to the store. Once you take a look at the basic items consider what unique needs your family might have, such as supplies for pets or seniors.
WHY DO YOU NEED AN EMERGENCY KIT?
The key to survival is self-sufficiency. If a wide-spread disaster occurs, paramedics or disaster relief organisations such as the Red Cross will not be able to administer aid for several days or more.
The more prepared your family is in advance of a major disaster, the better your odds are of surviving it.
In a best-case scenario, your house loses electricity but is still habitable. Worst case, your home is no longer structurally safe to inhabit, forcing your family to shelter outdoors. Additionally, family members may have sustained injuries with no help available.
The simple addition of a survival kit ensures your family has the supplies needed to turn an already dire situation into a survivable situation.
