An emergency communication plan defines how family members will communicate and where they will meet when phone or internet services are unavailable. Its purpose is to follow simple decisions made in advance rather than inventing a plan under stress.
Choose two meeting points
Select one safe place near home and an alternative outside the neighbourhood. Verify the official assembly area through current sources and discuss the route for each family member.
Create a contact card
Choose one local and one out-of-area contact. Carry phone numbers, essential medical information and meeting points on a printed card. Practise the plan periodically and update every change.
