I have been trying to teach a lot of people (clients or not) about getting ready. The preparation time for whatever is going on in the world is right now. You have to be ready. This week I have been researching emergency kits, what to have in them and etc. Let me add, but first say this: ORGANIZE YOUR EMERGENCY KIT FOR YOUR FAMILY SIZE, and the cars YOU DRIVE. I have a van, so I have a large Thirty-One Tote in my van and a few smaller ones that will carry supplies etc.
(it's a small investment that lasts a lifetime)
Here are a few items to create your emergency kits wherever need be (list taken from CDC website and more)
- Water—one gallon per person, per day
- Food—nonperishable, easy-to-prepare items
- Flashlight
- Battery powered or hand crank radio (NOAA Weather Radio, if possible)
- Extra batteries
- First aid kit (essential oil first aid kits as well)
- Medications (7-day supply), other medical supplies, and medical paperwork (e.g., medication list and pertinent medical information)
- Multipurpose tool (e.g., Swiss army knife)
- Sanitation and personal hygiene items
- Copies of personal documents (e.g., proof of address, deed/lease to home, passports, birth certificates, and insurance policies)
- Cell phone with chargers
- Family and emergency contact information
- Extra cash
- Emergency blanket
- Map(s) of the area (battery operated GPS)
- Extra set of car keys and house keys
- Manual can opener
- Medical supplies (e.g., hearing aids with extra batteries, glasses, contact lenses, syringes, or a cane)
- Baby supplies (e.g., bottles, formula, baby food, and diapers)
- Games and activities for children
- Pet supplies
Consider this a truly organization gone wild (OGW) piece of information! Bless you!
