Preparing for Crisis Situations
Emergency supplies
How to plan and keep your domestic reserves
- Determine which tools and reserves your family needs to cope independently for one week. Take into consideration the possibility that due to a crisis situation you cannot leave home, goods are not available at shops, and other vital services are not functioning (electricity, water supply, etc.).
- Think about where and how to store your stockpile to ensure that it can be easily accessed by you and your family.
- It is advisable to pack supplies that are not used every day in a separate bag. It is reasonable to keep some of the supplies necessary for evacuation in your car, such as a mobile charger, road map, snow shovel.
- Update your supplies regularly.
- When stock-piling any combustible material (such as liquid fuel, gas, firewood), follow the fire safety regulations and conditions for their storage.
