Communications: Emergency Preparedness Q&A Mini-Series
Are you an average cellphone user? Do you spend 3 hours and 20 minutes every day connected one way or another? imagine how upset you'll be following any sort of emergency when communications are cut off?!
Even in our neighborhood, where people’s cellphone use is more modest, we hear questions every month about how to stay in touch in an emergency. Questions like
Will 911 work if the power is off?Can I use Alexa to call 911?What if my cellphone batteries die?Who will be broadcasting in an emergency?How will I know what's happening at work? What emergency apps should I have on my phone?
This mini-book addresses these questions and 11 more like them. They are common questions, with simple answers. Plus, there's a place to make your own notes and build a To-Do list if you need one.
Of course, every family is unique. But the first question we will all have after a disaster is,"Are you OK?" This Mini-Series booklet will help you and all your family members be more confident of getting a strong "YES!"
