Make sure your family
knows how to get out of
the house and where to
meet up in an emergency. Draw
up a map. And practice
your escape plan
at least once a year.

First Aid Kit
No matter how careful you are and how much you try to prevent injuries, accidents do happen from time to time. Building a home first aid kit to take care of minor injuries will make sure you have what you need. In addition to the basic first aid supplies, make sure you have a list of your prescription medications in case you run out, and consider taking a class in basic first aid and CPR.
