An Emergency Kit contains everything you and your household will need to stay safe and be self-sufficient during an emergency situation. An Emergency Kit contains essentials such as non-perishable food, water, medications, personal items, flashlights, radios, batteries, clothes and blankets, and a first aid kit. Keep your Emergency Kit somewhere easily accessible in your household and make sure everyone knows where it is located. Huron-Kinloss has created an Emergency Information and Emergency Kit checklist you can use to help create your household’s Emergency Kit.
Be Prepared
By getting to know the most common hazards in our community, you can better prepare yourself, your family, your home, and your business for possible emergencies. Know the hazards, make a plan, and be prepared.
Create an Emergency Preparedness Plan
An Emergency Preparedness Plan includes important information such as emergency contacts, evacuation plans, emergency numbers, utilities information, and important documents you may need during an emergency. Emergency Management Ontario has created an easy-to-use template to help you and your household create your own Emergency Preparedness Action Plan.
