Harvest Hills 3rd Ward Preparedness
This is the home of preparedness information for the Harvest Hills 3rd Ward (Saratoga Springs, UT)
Church and Local Resources
The Church has a lot of great resources to help you and your family prepare for whatever comes. There are also great local community websites that provide information for Utah families. There are several listed below. In addition, I'm working to set up onsite first aid, food storage and emergency communication classes in the ward. Updates and links will be posted in this section.
Tips for Making an Emergency Plan.
This site, operated by the Church, provides great information to get started.
There's also a great Planning Guide that has several checklists and information sheets.
Emergency Preparedness
This section of the Church's Library, "Topics and Questions," covers the topic very well and provides insight from modern prophets to encourage and motivate.
Make a Plan: Family
This site is operated by the State of Utah and is a great starting guide.
You are responsible for the health and well-being of yourself and your family. Make plans for the disruptions to your family members' lives that could be caused by disasters. When family members know what to do and how to do it, you will all "be ready" to handle any emergency.
First Aid Classes
The Red Cross offers training services locally to help prepare yourself and your family for medical emergencies. These range from Basic First Aid to CPR to Water Safety. They are offered frequently and at low cost.
I'm also working to have some classes in our neighborhood for a group if there are enough people interested.
