Thing You Must Have in a Specific Situation
Earthquakes occur more often than we can suffer in these years. The devastating earthquakes happened in China, New Zealand and Japan drive us to be well-prepared anytime to save ourselves. Do you know that almost everyone Japanese has a emergency kit in their room to cope with overwhelming earthquakes and they take part in drills early since primary schools? Do you have a similar emergency kit in your room, no matter what is inside to fight against natural disasters like tornado, landslide, flood, or volcano eruption and emergencies?
What should be included in an emergency kit? Well, it may vary from different people. From my point of view, a torch or a flashlight is a must; considered electricity is usually cut off in above situations. Thus, choose a flashlight is necessary. You need to understand that do not attempt to use lithium or lithium-ion batteries with any light unless manufacturer instructions state that the specific light is designed to operate with lithium batteries. If not, you run the risk of damaging, or ruining a light by mismatching it with lithium batteries. Next time when you are determined to buy a flashlight, why no visit a local store and examine flashlights in person and consider how the light switches on and off. Do any models seem more likely to you to become inadvertently switched on inside your pack? Or, if you plan to use it in cold conditions, how easily could you switch it on or off wearing gloves? Is a tool required to change batteries? Also consider the materials used in its construction. Does it appear rugged enough for your needs? Remember not to leave the batteries in the flashlight unless it is in use. Tape them to the handle so you can easily find them when you need to install them. Besides, a radio will provide you the first-hand information if your power goes out or when you are outside. And a few bottles of water in your kit will ensure that you have something to drink if there is a catastrophe, or for other uses too; such as your car overheating and needing water to get the rest of the way home. Moreover, if you are in a temporary refuge, may help you a lot if you are a smoker, as you know, it is unavailable to smoke in public.
Aside from items for massive natural disasters, you need a first-aid kit for sickness.
1. Crest Pro-Health Enamel Shield – Did you know that foods most of us eat regularly can lead to irreversible enamel loss? Some foods are highly acidic like tomatoes, orange juice, even sport drinks. This new product provides a micro-thin layer of protection from the plaque and bacteria that can lead to enamel loss.
2. Hydrocortisone Cream – For any itching, red, inflamed rash, a cortisone cream is a must. The new pens that spray and fit in a purse or backpack and can go through airport security.
What I’m telling here is not an exaggeration. It is time to spend several minutes preparing an emergency kit which may save you some day.
