    Essential Tips for Earthquake Emergency Preparedness

    Preparing for an earthquake can make the difference between life and death. Start by developing a family emergency plan. Discuss with your family where to meet if separated and how to communicate if phone lines are down.

    Ensure that everyone knows the emergency numbers and the location of the nearest shelters. Regularly review and practice your plan to keep everyone prepared and confident in case of an earthquake.

    Another critical step in earthquake preparedness is knowing how to turn off utilities. Gas leaks and electrical fires are common hazards after an earthquake. Learn how to safely shut off your gas, electricity, and water supplies.

    Keep the necessary tools close by and make sure all family members know how to use them. Additionally, it’s wise to install an automatic gas shut-off valve to prevent leaks if you're not home during a quake.

    Educate yourself and your family about the early signs of an earthquake and what to do during and after one. When the shaking begins, immediately drop to your hands and knees to prevent being knocked over. Cover your head and neck with your arms and take shelter under a sturdy piece of furniture.

    Hold on until the shaking stops. After the quake, be prepared for aftershocks and avoid entering damaged buildings. Having a battery-powered radio can help you stay informed about emergency updates and safety instructions.
