subject: Emergency Disaster Management [print this page] Disaster is an unexpected, calamitous happening bringing great harm, loss, and destruction and devastation to life and possessions. The damage
caused by disasters is vast and varies with the geographical location, climate and the type of the earth surface/degree of vulnerability. This
influences the mental, political, socio-economic, and cultural state of the affected region. Normally, disaster has the following effects in the
concerned areas,
1. It totally disrupts the usual day to day life
2. It unenthusiastically influences the urgent situation
3. Normal needs and processes like food, shelter, health, etc. are affected.
Disaster management is the regulation of dealing with and avoiding risks. It is a discipline that involves preparing for disaster before it happens.
Natural disaster management is all about strategies intended to keep the harmful effects caused by disasters at a minimum. Disaster management
has become a vital issue in today's time. Every time it is not likely to predict when a tragedy will occur and to what degree it will cause destruction.
All we can do is we get ready ourselves for the hard time. To manage with the hard situation, there arises a need to build up an elaborate disaster
management diagram with a proper built in mechanism. This in turn will allow you to react quickly to the serious situation. The ability to stay alive an
emergency disaster condition does not depend as much on luck, as it does on being ready. There are numerous easy steps that you can take right
away to increase your attentiveness for an emergency disaster condition.
Your essential emergency survival kit should contain the following items:
Water
Food
A first aid kit
Local maps
A battery powered
A flashlight
A whistle to signal for help
A dust mask
It is significant to keep in mind that this is not an all comprehensive survival kit, but more of essential emergency attentiveness kit. You will also
require accounting for unique family wants such as instruction medication, eye glasses, infant formula and diapers, just to name a few. Your
emergency disaster survival plan should not be based on fortune. It is significant to be ready, and a small higher planning can go a long way to
improving your chances for survival.
We have pleasure in presenting the 2010 Lumenite range containing the very latest in High Performance Photoluminescent (HPPL) technology in life
saving products, including our patented Lumenite Light Sleeve. In studying building safety, the founders of Lumenite identified the need for
improved emergency evacuation systems and the products on offer in the following pages are the result of years of painstaking research and
development. They apply not only to buildings, but also to mines, tunnels, rail carriages and subway systems, oil & gas platforms, commercial and
military shipping and marine applications, car parks; in fact virtually any space that uses artificial lighting that could fail, and which could benefit from
a fail-safe visual guidance system for expedient and efficient evacuation or movement of personnel.
