The City of Moreno Valley Office of Emergency Management would like you to remember that safety always comes first during an outage, and here you'll find how to plan and prepare, and what you can do during an outage to keep your home and family comfortable and secure. Prepare & Plan Don’t wait for an unexpected outage to determine what you may need. Buying a few basic supplies beforehand, making preparations for special needs in your household and keeping a few things handy are all part of making an outage plan for your home and family. Home Power Outage Kit Checklist: • First Aid Kit: including unexpired prescription medications • Special Needs Items: for infants, elderly and/or disabled • A Battery-Operated Radio: to access news reports • Fresh Batteries: for all necessary equipment • Bottled Water: at least one gallon per person, per day • Non-Perishable Food: that doesn't require cooking • Manual Can Opener • Several Coolers or Ice Chests: to store ice if the outage is lengthy • Non-Cordless Phone: to plug in during outages • Flashlights: store them where you can easily find them Protective Measures Some simple but important safety measures will help keep your family members, home, and even pets protected during an outage. Keeping food cold, having a plan for medical emergencies, and even knowing what to unplug and reset are all part of putting safety first. • Place flashlights in handy locations, such as near telephones • Install surge protectors to help safeguard valuable electronic equipment such as computers and home entertainment systems • Know where to find each utility box (electricity, water and gas) and how to turn them off. Keep the proper tools to do so handy • Always back up important work and files on your computer and keep them in a safe and secure location • If you have an automatic garage door or gate, learn how to open them manually (without power)
