When considering your family�s safety, be prepared for the possibilities. You should protect your home and your family using self defense products like window alarms, dummy cameras, and pepper spray. Something else that you should not forget is an emergency kit. Not only should you be prepared for environmental issues, like a power outage or earthquake, but you must also be prepared to deal with the possibility of physical injuries.
Your emergency kit should contain everything your family would need to live three days with no additional support. This means no gas station, grocery store, police, or hospital. Keep a waterproof container in an accessible location (not under piles of other things in your garage or basement). Your supplies should be kept together in this location, although it also makes good sense to keep additional stores of supplies around the home in case your larger kit becomes inaccessible during the emergency. For example, keep your pepper spray and stun guns around the home, rather than storing them in the relatively inaccessible location of a plastic storage bin.
Emergency supplies should include blankets, plastic tarps, duct tape, and a change of warm clothes for each family member. These items provide shelter. It should also include a battery-powered radio, flashlights, batteries, and a food and water supply to last several days. Think about your family�s unique needs, and plan accordingly.
Don�t forget to include a large first aid kit, perhaps even in its own separate box from the one containing the rest of your emergency supplies. In fact, your emergency first aid kit should be kept in an even more accessible location since you may need to use it more frequently than the rest of your emergency supplies. A medical emergency could happen for a wide range of reasons, from a child falling off their bicycle to a cooking injury to someone breaking into your home and hurting one of your family members. While there is no way to predict what kind of medical emergency may befall you, be prepared for common injuries with gauze, bandages, antiseptic, and other common first aid supplies.
Besides having the supplies, you should also learn how to use them. Purchase a book on basic first aid practices so that you�ll know what to do if a family member is injured and in need of immediate help. Read it before the time comes; in an emergency, you won�t have time to read the book from cover to cover. Enroll your family in self defense classes so that they�ll know how to defend themselves, and emergency preparation and first aid classes (which can be found through your local Red Cross) so that you will all feel more confident dealing with whatever comes your way.
An emergency kit, including supplies to protect and care for your family, is a small investment to ensure your peace of mind. You never know what emergency could happen, from someone breaking into your home to an earthquake or large fire. Be prepared for any possibility with a well-stocked emergency kit containing items to protect your family, provide comfort, and care for their needs.
