subject: Creating an Emergency Plan for your Family [print this page] Putting together a good emergency plan is great, but does little if you and your family do not go over it together. When you have outlined a good plan, sit down with the whole family and discuss every aspect of your plan. Since there are so many types of possible emergencies, make sure you discuss as many potential scenarios as possible. Then, once the whole family knows what to do in an emergency, practice your escape routes and survival techniques together as if you were in a real emergency.
