Dear Toni,
I am retired and have moved to North Carolina to help my mother and older brother, Johnny, rebuild our family home after the devastation from Hurricane Helene last September. My brother was not prepared, and so I need to help Johnny put together an emergency plan.
What can we do to be prepared for another hurricane, tornado or other emergency? Since the hurricane, my mother has been in an assisted living facility, and we are concerned that the facility does not have a very good evacuation plan. Please explain how to prepare for another emergency. Thanks, Toni.
