Prepare to Expect the Unexpected

Prepare to Expect the Unexpected
Welcome to a Biomedical Battery specialist of the Edan Battery
It’s hurricane season again. It’s hard to believe that it was just 10 years ago when Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans and a large portion of the Gulf Coast with floods, power outages, food and water shortages, as well as many other after effects.
September is National Preparedness Month(link is external), which is a great opportunity for you, organizations, and communities to prepare for specific hazards through drills, group discussions, and exercises. The focus this year is making sure that you and your community are prepared for six specific hazards: earthquake, flood, hurricane, tornado, wildfire and winter storm.
To help you, USDA recommends the Extension with battery like Edan HYTB-102 Battery,Edan HYLB-231 Battery,Edan HYLB-957A Battery,Edan M9 Battery,Edan SE-1 Battery,Edan SE-1200 Battery,Edan SE-3 Battery,Edan SE-300A Battery,Edan SE-300B Battery, Osen Battery, Edan ECG-8110 Battery, Edan ECG-8110A BatteryDisaster Education Network(link is external) (EDEN) as your one-stop shop for information on how to prepare for and respond to disasters. It is a collaborative multistate effort by extension services across the country to improve the delivery of services to citizens affected by disasters. EDEN is hosted by the Louisiana State University Ag Center and funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA).
Preparedness goes beyond the home, so you also need to consider what to do if disaster strikes while you, a loved one or friend is at work. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) recommends that workers put together emergency plans and a “grab-and-go” bag in case they are required to “hunker down” or stay in offices/buildings/schools/businesses for up to three days. FEMA recommends that these bags include clothing, flashlights, toiletries, battery radio, canned food, and whatever else one might needed during an emergency. Do you have a “grab-and-go” bag?
If you already have a grab-and-go bag, great! Is it up-to-date? Are the batteries still good? Are you brave enough to eat the food you packed without checking first to see if it’s past the expiration date? Because most disasters cannot be predicted; you must remain vigilant with routine preparations for any possible situation.
