Emerging Trends in Emergency Preparedness Presentation
Emergencies can occur at any given time and your ability to successfully
navigate the unknown rests primarily on your personal level of preparedness.
MCC Public Safety Emergency Manager Chuck DiSalvo invites you to attend a
brown bag information session on Wednesday August 8 from 12 noon to 1 pm in The
Empire Room, Building 3 Room 209 for a presentation on how best you can prepare
for emergencies in your community.
Topics for discussion include:
- How you should apply an "All Hazards Approach" to emergency
preparedness.
- How best to prepare for potential/actual power outages.
- Shelters: When are shelters your best option.
- Emergency Medical Care: What to do when the hospital emergency room can't
accommodate you?
- Weather Reports: What do they really tell you and
how well do you understand them.
- Weather Radios: Should you own one and if so which one should you own.
- Hazardous Travel: How best to navigate hazardous travel conditions and when
it is best to stay where you are and not travel.
- How to construct both stationary and travel friendly "Go-Kits."
- Emergency Communications: Do you know how best to communicate and obtain
information when cellular and landline service are unreliable and/or
inoperable?
