Emergency kits are a great way to keep your family safe and prepared for any type of disaster. In times of evacuation, it’s an easy thing to grab quick in case someone gets injured. Every family member should know the location and have accessibility because you never know when a disaster may strike.

Maintaining your emergency kit is also crucial. If items are in there long enough, they will go bad. This mainly relates to food items, but also adhesive bandages if they loose their stickiness. After your emergency kit is prepared, inform your family where it is and what materials are inside of it. Create a walk-through procedure with your family to designate specific exits.
