Congregations Who Care … Prepare*
Emergency
Preparedness Tool Kit
Get Informed, Be Prepared
Dear Parishioner,
The
Emergency
Preparedness Tool Kit packet contains basic but credible
information on preparedness for a national or local
disaster. Click to see and print this 14 page informational
document prepared for us at SES. Although the following pages speak specifically to
a Pandemic Flu Outbreak, they are useful planning ideas for
any serious incident as: severe weather with destruction,
civil disturbance, bio-terrorism, or flu outbreak with
quarantine. As a vital parish with an active health
ministry, St. Elizabeth Seton recognized its responsibility
to raise awareness, when a health threat, reported in the
media, is possible. Be assured, there is no immediate
threat. Providing health information and spiritual guidance
and alternatives, when availability is non-existent, is the
goal of this packet. Several web sites are available for
complete preparedness information and challenges.
Web sites are:
