Health Tips - Being Prepared For the Unexpected

An accident can happen at anytime. Everyday people experience emergencies such as car accidents, cardiac arrest, and accidental poisoning. While it is never pleasant to imagine these things, it is always wise to be prepared for a health emergency. Whether you are at home, running errands, or on vacation, there a several things you can do to keep your family safe and give you peace of mind, knowing you are ready.

• Keep a phone list in your house and car of nearby pharmacies, hospitals, dentists, poison control centers, and veterinarians. Emergencies can strike at any time. Having a list of emergency contacts will help save you precious time when action is needed quickly.
• Have a plan for emergencies and make sure everyone knows what they are supposed to do if a disaster strikes. The more prepared your family is, the safer they will be in the event of a health emergency.
• Learn CPR and first aid. Knowing how to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (adult, child, and infant) and basic first aid can help you save a life. Contact your local fire department or public health department to find out about classes available in your area.
• Have a first aid kit in your car and home. A good first aid kit generally includes bandages, antiseptics, antibacterial ointment, gauze, tape, scissors, ibuprofen, instant icepacks, and a space blanket
• Get an AED (Automated External Defibrillator). Sudden Cardiac Arrest can strike anyone at anytime. For the best chance at survival, experts generally agree that an AED should be administered within 5 minutes, which is often times long before emergency personnel arrive. While AEDs were once only available to medical professionals, there is now an "over-the-counter" home AED that you can purchase without a prescription.
• Have a cell phone. A cell phone may be the quickest way to call for help if you ever need it. If you don't like the idea of paying for a monthly service and being stuck in a contract, you can now buy pay-as-you-go and pre-paid phones from major retailers. Make sure you know your contract's terms about expiring minutes, especially in pre-paid phones.
