Does Your Family Have an Emergency Plan in Place?

Since the nature of emergencies are that they happen when they happen a good Doomsday Prepper needs to be prepared for many different contingencies.

Obviously most survival preppers will think of the obvious like food, shelter and security but what about actually planning for the emergency itself? What if a train car derailed and it was loaded with potentially letal chemicals and the plume were blowing your way? Your spouse is at work, the kids are at school and all hell breaks loose, or as we like to call it, when the shit hits the fan.

Within minutes of the announcement of the disaster streets are filling with cars, people are ignoring road rules such as which lane to drive in and 4 ways stops. This leads to accidents and issues further snarling traffic. To make things worse you try and contact your family on the phone, but you get the all circuits are busy message.

Luckily you are at home and have access to Gas Masks, plenty of food and all but your spouse and kids are no where near. You have to leave your home because of the safety issues but what about the rest of your family, what are they thinking? Where are they going to try to go?

Quite likely they are trying to get to you and the gear which you are looking to take and leave with.

This is a common scenario that does happen and will happen again. Having a plan in place for these sorts of emergencies can be the difference between life and death. Every family should have plans in place as to what to do in such a scenario.

Maybe have a family members house that is out of town as your meeting location. Maybe it's just an address in the city to get to and leave a message as to a final destination.

The point is everyone in the family needs to know where to meet if they are separated and need to get back with each other. This plan needs to be discussed regularly so when the emergency situation comes up everyone knows where to go and what to do at least.

Creating a survival plan is as easy as having a family discussion and coming up with some locations. You should also plan on who should grab what when the time comes. Also plan for several scenarios. A train derailing would be much different than a terrorist attack or an earthquake.

Take a few minutes to get this done. It might just save your life and the lives of your family members.
