Daylight Savings Time a Good Time to Check Your Family’s Emergency Preparedness Status
The Hays County Personal Health Department is reminding residents that when you “spring” your clocks forward on March 14 for Daylight Savings Time take the time to check your family’s emergency preparedness status – and don’t forget to change the batteries in your smoke detectors. “A little forethought, a few extras in the pantry, and an emergency plan that you and your family all know about can help you in most all emergency situations,” said Chuck Chapman, RN, emergency preparedness coordinator for the Hays County Personal Health Department. The list below can get you started, Chapman said. “These are a few of the precautions and preparations you can take to protect you and your family. In a time of need, emergency resources are limited. By taking the time now to ensure your own safety, you allow those resources to help those truly in need.”
