Emergencies can come in a variety of forms, but they all constitute a major danger to both people and property.
In the case of an emergency the City and various emergency organizations will respond, each enacting their own procedures and plans to minimize the risks when disaster strikes.
Like those emergency professionals, you, and your family, should also have a plan, the knowledge and the preparation necessary to react to any disaster. If you are prepared it doesn’t only help you. Being prepared means emergency responders can prioritize those who need help most. It’s important you:
- Plan for emergencies by having a home emergency plan
- Prepare for emergencies by having a home emergency preparation kit
- Know both how to be informed of potential emergencies through community notification sirens and Sarnia Lambton Alerts; and how to respond to their specific hazards
