Tips from the VOP - Basic Emergency Kit Prep

Here's a blurb from the VOP newsletter in case you don't receive it by email.  We thought this would be a good thing to pass on. Safety first!!!

 

BE PREPARED!   How to Prepare a Basic Emergency Kit  You may have some of these basic emergency kit items already, such as a flashlight, battery-operated radio, food, water and blankets. The key is to make sure they are organized, easy to find and easy to carry (in a suitcase with wheels or in a backpack) in case you need to evacuate your home. Whatever you do, don't wait for a disaster to happen. Easy to carry - think of ways that you can pack your emergency kit so that you and those on your emergency plan can easily take the items with you, if necessary.  Water - two litres of water per person per day (Include small bottles that can be carried easily in case of an evacuation order)  Food - that won't spoil, such as canned food, energy bars and dried foods (remember to replace the food and water once a year)  Manual can opener  Flashlight and batteries  Battery-powered or wind-up radio (and extra batteries)  First aid kit  Special needs items - prescription medications, infant formula or equipment for people with disabilities  Extra keys - for your car and house  Cash - include smaller bills, such as $10 bills (travellers cheques are also useful) and change for payphones Emergency plan - include a copy of it and ensure it contains in-town and out-of-town contact information Print this page or download the PDF version of the kit checklist (PDF 66KB). Check off the items for your 72-hour emergency kit as you accumulate them.   For more information on the Village of Pemberton Emergency Management Program visit www.pemberton.ca   Interested in becoming involved as a volunteer?  Please contact Bettina Falloon, Emergency Program Coordinator at 604.894.6135 or bfalloon@pemberton.ca   ____________________________________________
