SACSS Community Members Learn How to Equip for Emergency Preparedness
Whether it’s a natural disaster, a medical emergency, or any other unexpected event, having a well-thought-out plan can make all the difference, ensuring the safety and well-being of yourself and others.
Gathering personal documents, packing essentials, and knowing your region’s specific risks and evacuation centers are some of the steps to stay safe. Knowing what to do and where to go can minimize panic and confusion and maximize the chances of a successful outcome.
