Emergency Contact Person Card
·
Choose a relative or friend who lives outside the disaster area, preferably with a
different area code or in another province or country, who all family members can
contact if it becomes impossible to reach your home or reunion sites. Communication
within a disaster area is harder to establish than calling from a disaster area to an
area not affected by the disaster. Ideally choose someone who has voice mail or an
answering machine so that you don’t need to call repeatedly if they are not at home.
·
Fill out the cards with this information for each family member to keep. (See page 3)
·
Remind all family members to contact this person as soon as they can after the emergency
and report how and where they are and their plans for the next few days. Keep
conversations short as the phone system will be overloaded with people trying to contact
their loved ones.
