What To Do in an Emergency
If you are unfortunate enough to have a home emergency, there are a number of things you can do to be prepared and help the situation.
Emergency Contacts
Have a list of important emergency phone numbers next to each phone in your home. These numbers may include:
- 911 or your local emergency number if your area doesn't use the 911 system
- Fire Department
- Poison Control
- Hospital
- Personal Physician
- Relative or Friend who can help out in emergency
You may also want to note on the paper if you or anyone in your home is taking medications or has special medical needs, in case the person who is calling the emergency number doesn't know.
To help you keep track of these numbers and other home-safety features, print the Home Safety Checklist at the end of this course.
