Be sure you have an emergency back-up source/supply for any medical equipment requiring electricity.
Always keep a list of emergency telephone numbers available, including your medical equipment supplier.
Have someone such as a family member or neighbor who will check on you if an emergency situation occurs.
Determine an evacuation route and alternatives.
Arrange for a friend or relative in another town to be a communication contact for the extended family.
Make a habit to listen to daily weather forecasts. Be aware of changing conditions.
Find out where the main utility switches are in your home and assign someone to turn them off in an emergency situation.
Have a flashlight and extra batteries nearby for power outages. Keep extra blankets available in case the power goes out.
