Every household should have an emergency plan in place in the event a storm or disaster strikes. Our local team in Charlottesville responds to storm damage emergencies 24 hours a day and offers this helpful information from the Federal Emergency Management Agency for tailoring a plan to meet the specific needs of your household:

As you prepare your plan tailor your plans and supplies to your specific daily living needs and responsibilities. Discuss your needs and responsibilities and how people in the network can assist each other with communication, care of children, business, pets, or specific needs like operating medical equipment. Create your own personal network for specific areas where you need assistance. Keep in mind some of these factors when developing your plan:

• Different ages of members within your household
• Responsibilities for assisting others
• Locations frequented
• Dietary needs
• Medical needs including prescriptions and equipment
• Disabilities or access and functional needs including devices and equipment
• Languages spoken
