Are my loved ones safe?

Communications During a Disaster: Five Lessons Learned, Posted Nov 6 2012 by Communications Network
Expect your answering machine to work if
there is no power.
Make non-emergency calls or drain devices
by playing games, watching videos, etc.
Rely on cordless phones, VoIP phone lines, or
phone services that are routed through a
modem and provided by a cable provider.
Try to text or send pictures to 911.
Have at least one cloud-based (e.g., Google)
email account.
Check social media regularly for updates,
warnings, and to post your status
information.
Automatically assume that losing power
means losing online access. Try WiFi access.
Let your car run out of gas. You may need a
car charger to keep electronics powered up.
Forget to store an ICE (In Case of
Emergency) number.
Wait until an emergency to create an
emergency call plan.
Rely on locally-hosted or employer email
addresses.
Repeatedly try to contact the same phone
number—wait 10 seconds between
attempts or text.
Use texting, emailing, and social media to
reach friends and loved ones.
Use the American Red Cross’s Safe Well
program to communicate your status and
search for others.
Make long phone calls—try to convey only
vital information.
Forget to check resources available from
organizations like the Red Cross, FEMA, DHS.
