What Would I Do?
Sometimes when I am lying in bed at night trying to sleep, the thought crosses my mind that if there was a fire in our home, we might not be able to escape. My family’s bedrooms are all on the top floor of our house. If a fire occurred in the lower levels of our home, trapping us upstairs, just how would we escape?
The more I think about it, the more it worries me. I should definitely look into purchasing several escape ladders and holding a fire drill with our children.
While I know that emergency preparedness is of the upmost importance, my husband and I have yet to put together any sort of emergency plans for our home and family. We definitely do not have a stock pile of food, a list of emergency contact phone numbers or even a way to escape from the top floor of our home in the event of a fire.
In fact, the more I think about it, the more driven I am to stop everything and get cracking on our emergency preparedness.
One thing we do have is an Intelligent First Aid™ kit. I am very thankful for the kit. It is separated into individually labeled and color-coded injury packs so that I have all of the supplies and easy to follow instructions for managing a specific injury.
At the squeeze of a button, the audio module in each injury card narrates step-by-step instructions to manage the injury, pausing and repeating when necessary.
