How to prepare an emergency kit for a severe storm in Plainfield

12/3/2020 (Permalink)

Plainfield is no stranger to severe storms. If a community is not prepared for a severe storm, the results can be devastating.  SERVPRO of Plainfield/Naperville South wants to share some of the following tips to keep in mind while putting together an emergency kit in the event of a severe storm approaching. FEMA has stated that emergency kits should include some of the following:

  • Flashlight and extra batteries
  • First aid kit
  • Any medicine currently being taken
  • Emergency food and water
  • Extra change of clothes and shoes
  • Pet supplies if you are taking care of an animal

These are just a few examples of what an emergency kit should contain. Residents can add whatever else may be needed. There should be an emergency kit in every residential building as well as all commercial buildings if possible. Aside from having an emergency kit ready, a plan should also be in place. If there is a designated storm area inside the home or office, occupants should head there with the emergency kits. Severe storms cannot be avoided, but with the right tools and resources, they can be easier to deal with.  SERVPRO of Plainfield/Naperville South wants to make sure your city is prepared!
