Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Your mobilehome community is vulnerable. You've put in the hours to complete the CERT course or other emergency response training, but you're afraid that in a big disaster, your neighbors won't know how to protect themselves, much less how to help you! That's the situation we found ourselves in - and we weren't ready to accept it. Instead, we gathered up our energy, our marketing skills and our experience as trainers and began what has turned out to be a 15+ year experiment at improving emergency preparedness in our community.This book details what we have learned so far about building a neighborhood emergency response team. And our goal is to present it in so others can use it to build their own neighborhood teams. Of course, every community is different. And while we approach building a neighborhood team in three broadly defined steps, we try to include many, many ways to go about getting there.The three steps are simple: (1) Prepare yourself and your family (2) Get CERT training and build a core group around you (3) Build and document your neighborhood "plan" for credibility and consistency.Sounds simple, but there are so many choices to be made along the way! Some of the resources we think will make choices easier: * Using the advantages - and watching out for the disadvantages - of living in an apartment complex* List after list of emergency supplies for survival kits, evacuation kits, pet survival kits, etc.* Eight priorities for personal preparations* MANY suggestions for holding meetings that will recruit new members and keep them involved (We have been involved in hundreds of such meetings over the years!)* List of emergency items your neighborhood team members will want - and will appreciate* 7 things about your building/location to investigate before you even start building the team* Step by step to creating the "organization chart" and filling in the blanks with neighbors' names* Sample charts, communications matrix, meeting invitations* Legal alerts and warnings* "Real life" short stories of things we tried that didn't work so well!Finally, we admit to some of our frustrations with the process - and we try to remind enthusiastic leaders about what to expect from volunteers!There are no guarantees in this book. Emergencies by their very definition are unexpected and unknown. What we do know, though, is that whatever preparations you and your neighbors make, and whatever planning you do, give you a better chance of keeping that emergency from becoming a disaster.

Download or read book Emergency Preparedness for Mobilehome Communities - the WORKBOOK written by Virginia S. Nicols and published by . This book was released on 2019-09-03 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emergency Preparedness for Mobilehome Communities: THE WORKBOOK is not just a response to a public need, but a drive to make emergency preparedness a community reality. We all know it's important to stock up on water in the face of catastrophic events like earthquakes, wildfires, and hurricanes. But what are your options in a mobile home? What medicines should you store and what is the best way to do it? Do you buy one or more of those pre-made survival packs or build one yourself? What kind of lighting will you need during a power outage or a major emergency? These are just a few of the dozens and dozens of choices you and your neighbors will be making in forming a community response team for your neighborhood. Living in a mobile home community definitely has its advantages. Neighbors are close and can readily lend a hand. But natural disasters have taken a disproportionate toll on mobile home parks pointing to the necessity of an organized population to cope with the challenges. Fortunately, most parks offer a perfect place for building a strong community preparedness culture. But it does take time and effort. THE WORKBOOK is aimed at SIMPLIFYING that process! Emergency Preparedness for Mobilehome Communities was my first book on the topic. Based on my years of planning experience with emergency preparedness and disaster recovery challenges, it covers many aspects of preparedness, from (1) personal readiness to (2) getting more neighbors involved to (3) actually putting together a written neighborhood plan. Appendices of the book cover threats, recruitment ideas, legal cautions, training options, and emergency communications. Throughout I've listed additional proven resources. While the book has been well received, readers have admitted to me that there was still too much for them to get their arms around! So I wrote a companion - THE WORKBOOK. It follows the same content flow, so you'll want to keep the book close at hand to refer to. But THE WORKBOOK is truly a workbook, as you'd expect. It has simple questions, and spaces for you to write your answers. Step by step, you'll be taking action . . . Answering questions to help set personal priorities Researching what planning has already been done Making sure park management is on board Finding and inviting interested neighbors Getting training for yourself and your team Learning about park infrastructure, utilities, etc. Picking which disasters to plan for Meeting the First Responders that serve your community Planning and holding meetings for all your park neighbors The Q&A format of THE WORKBOOK moves you and your group forward by simple steps, one after another, on your own time frame. Many of the questions make it easy to engage others in your family, household or group. If you haven't been able to make the progress you'd like on your own readiness, or if you want to help your whole mobilehome park community get better prepared, get Emergency Preparedness for Mobilehome Communities and its companion THE WORKBOOK. Everything you need to know is in these step by step guides. It's not only an important tool in building your personal survival plan, it actually turns the process into an enjoyable experience. Each page you complete will increase your self-confidence and peace of mind.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You recognize your apartment community is vulnerable to a disaster. You've put in the hours to complete the CERT course (Community Emergency Response Team) or maybe another training. But in a big emergency, people around you won't know how to protect themselves, much less how to help their neighbors - including you! That's the situation we found ourselves in - and we weren't ready to accept it. So, we gathered up our energy, our marketing skills and our experience as trainers and began what has turned out to be a 15+ year experiment at improving emergency preparedness in our community. This book (and the others in the Series) details what we have learned so far about building a neighborhood emergency response team. Our goal is to share it to help others build their own neighborhood teams. Of course, every community is different.

Some of the resources we've included that we hope will make your choices easier: * Using the advantages - and watching out for the disadvantages - of your unique setting (multi-family dwelling, high-rise or low-rise, mobilehome park, single family residential neighborhood)* Lists of emergency supplies for survival kits, evacuation kits, pet survival kits, etc.* Eight priorities for personal preparations* MANY suggestions for holding meetings that will recruit new members and keep them involved (We have been involved in hundreds of such meetings over the years!)* List of emergency items your neighborhood team members will want * 7 things about your building/location to investigate before you even start building the team* Step by step to creating the "organization chart" and filling in the blanks with neighbors' names* Sample charts, communications matrix, meeting invitations* Legal alerts and warnings* "Real life" short stories of things we tried that didn't work so well!Finally, we admit to some of our frustrations with the process -- and we try to remind enthusiastic leaders about what to expect from volunteers!There are no guarantees in this book.

Download or read book Repairing Your Flooded Home written by and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When in doubt, throw it out. Don't risk injury or infection. 2: Ask for help. Many people can do a lot of the cleanup and repairs discussed in this book. But if you have technical questions or do not feel comfortable doing something, get professional help. If there is a federal disaster declaration, a telephone "hotline" will often be publicized to provide information about public, private, and voluntary agency programs to help you recover from the flood. Government disaster programs are there to help you, the taxpayer. You're paying for them; check them out. 3: Floodproof. It is very likely that your home will be flooded again someday. Floodproofing means using materials and practices that will prevent or minimize flood damage in the future. Many floodproofing techniques are inexpensive or can be easily incorporated into your rebuilding program. You can save a lot of money by floodproofing as you repair and rebuild (see Step 8).
