Tips On Fire Safety And Emergency Planning Monmouth County

By Sharon Smith


How many people do you know that learned how to swim without ever getting into the water? As a Hapkido and self-defense instructor, I laugh at advertisements that claim a person will be able take on Navy SEALS just after watching a training DVD. Here's the thing, I've read books on swimming to help become a better swimmer. I've read countless books on hapkido, martial arts, and self-defense and have learned a lot from them. I've watched more instructional videos regarding hapkido, martial arts, and self-defense than most as well, and I've learned a lot from them. Emergency planning Monmouth County is just indispensable.

Here's the catch, I didn't just watch them, I got off the couch, watched, practiced, rewound to watch again, determined just what the instructor was showing, analyzed it against my own background and teaching, and then worked on the techniques repeatedly with my training partner in the training hall. If you do this, you can learn from books and DVDs. Why? Because you learn by doing! Family disaster planning requires the same thing! You must practice!

Pre-incidence testing and preparation - disaster planning begins with employing trained personnel's who will be responsible for making decisions during the disaster. Next step is to assess the plans formulated.

That's why it is so ridiculous to think that just watching a DVD will prepare you to defend against a physical attack. It takes training, and training in adrenal response and actual contact, not just hitting the air a few times.

Professional Emergency Managers. There are many organizations that have taken up the cause of serving humanity. The main aim of professional disaster managers is to provide core relief items, support and structure to the devastated parts. Most commonly used Core relief items, distributed amongst the deprived; include shelter (waterproof tents), clothes, blankets, kitchen utilities, water containers, stove, sleeping mats, etc.

Having a plan management software program that offers training courses and keeps a record of who has completed online disaster response training enables you to easily keep track of who has been trained and when. This way you are not only able to see who needs training, you are able to prove your personnel are trained and therefore reduce your liability while increasing life safety in your building.

Next, you must practice your plans. Practice realistic fire drills. Practice drills for other emergencies. Practice both in the daytime and at night. Have your children practice making 911 calls. They should practice their name, address and phone number. Three and four year old's should know their name, address, including city, and phone number. They should also be taught who they can give these to.

No one wants a calamity to occur, but the family that works together to develop plans in case of home emergencies, and then practices what they've planned, will fare better in those unfortunate times than those who just wish and hope nothing ever happens. Take the time, make it fun, and practice your family emergency plans.
