"While everyone is at risk during a natural weather-related disaster or similar emergency, older adults can be especially vulnerable during these challenging times. Being prepared in advance can literally mean the difference between survival and death, particularly for those who may have special medical or mobility needs" (National Institute on Aging).
Join us this week as we discuss how to evaluate the risks your geographical region poses, stocking an emergency kit, considering the role your medical needs will play in your preparedness, and how to plan for an efficient evacuation.
