Disaster Preparedness, Part 4: How to Create an Evacuation Plan

In Mills-Peninsula Health Services’ monthly series about emergency preparedness, Deborah Tauscher, MPHS emergency preparedness coordinator, offers an easy-to-follow way to develop an evacuation plan.

In this most recent installment of the disaster preparation series, you can learn how to plan escape routes for you and your family, how to set up safe meeting places, and why evacuation practice can be a literal lifesaver.
