Disaster preparedness is actual complex if you start thinking about actions like bolting down your gas water heater and bracing overhead light fixtures.  All these types of actions are important to consider, but the first step is to create a disaster preparedness kit.

The following tips cover only the essential items you need to help you cope in response to a disaster.  There's more to consider, but these steps will give you a good start.  Remember, the bottom line is water, food, and shelter.  After the disaster in Japan, more than 2 million people were without water.  Another 500,000 were homeless.  These are real possibilities.  So focus on the priorities first.  Then, add the other items to your kit.

Keep your supplies in an easy to carry kit.  There's actually quite a lot on this list so use your imagination when it comes to an appropriate container.  Store your kit in an accessible place, one that will be within reach once a disaster strikes.  It's also wise to have a set of basic emergency supplies in your car and at work.

These are the most essential items:

1.  Water

1-2 gallons of water per person, per day.  A 3-day supply for evacuation, a two-week supply at home.

2.  Food

Easy to prepare, non perishable items and a mechanical can opener.  Canned soup, meat, vegetables, and fruit.  A 3-day supply for evacuation, a two-week supply at home.  For food preparation, have on hand a simple barbeque, charcoal and starter fuel or 1 propane unit with 2 canisters of propane and some basic cooking utensils.  Don't forget waterproof matches or lighters.



3. Shelter

An emergency blanket, sleeping bag or regular blankets, and tent.

4. Medical

First aid kit, a supply of essential medicines for at least a week, other crucial medical supplies like an inhaler.

5. Light

Flashlights, extra batteries, and extra bulbs.  Candles.  Waterproof matches or lighter.

6.  Radio

A battery-powered AM/FM radio.

7. Cash

Cash machines won't work without electricity.  Have a minimum of $50 on hand in small bills plus phone change.

8. Cell Phone and Charger

Although a cell phone may not work in a disaster, it might also be your line to life-saving support.

9. Sanitation and Personal Hygiene Items

Toilet paper, toothbrush, soap and other essential supplies.

10. Personal Documents

Driver's license, birth certificate, passports, insurance policies, proof of address or lease, medication list and medical information, copies of credit cards, checks
