Don’t Forget We Are Still in the Midst of Hurricane Season!
GET A KIT
Every family/person should have an emergency kit / go-bag created that will help them survive in their house or at a remote location (i.e. shelter) for several days to a week. The emergency kit includes basic items for survival, such as fresh water, food and accessories for warmth.
MAKE AN EMERGENCY PLAN
Make plans with your family and friends in case you’re not together during an emergency. Discuss how you’ll contact each other, where you’ll meet and what you’ll do in different situations.
STAY INFORMED
Being prepared means staying informed. During an emergency, the Office Of Emergency Management (OEM) will provide you with the proper information about the incident. The Ocean County Health Department website serves as a resource for all health-related information in Ocean County and will provide updates during incidents. Make sure to also follow us on our social media platforms.
