🌪️ Tornado Safety Topic - Tuesday March 24 🌪️

Tornadoes can develop quickly—being prepared can save lives. Take a moment today to review these safety tips:

Before a Tornado:
• Have a plan and know where to take shelter
• Identify a safe place: basement, storm shelter, or small interior room on the lowest level
• Keep a weather radio or alerts enabled on your phone
• Prepare an emergency kit with essentials (water, flashlight, batteries, medications)

During a Tornado:
• Go to your safe place immediately
• Stay away from windows and doors
• Cover your head and neck with your arms or a helmet
• If you’re in a mobile home, get out and find a sturdy shelter

If You’re Outside or in a Vehicle:
• Do NOT try to outrun a tornado
• Seek shelter in a sturdy building if possible
• As a last resort, lie flat in a low-lying area and cover your head

After the Storm:
• Watch for debris and downed power lines
• Check on family, friends, and neighbors
• Follow instructions from local officials

🟡 Stay weather aware. 🟡 Stay safe.

Six members of Osceola County EMS had the opportunity to attend some great training and get hands on education on airway management, pediatric emergencies, vehicle crash emergencies/traumatic injuries and gun shot wound training. A HUGE SHOUT OUT to Sioux County EMS personnel for organizing the program and trainers! THANK YOU Sioux County EMS! Note on photos shown today: photos contained EMS personnel working with pork lungs, heart and pork shoulder for educational purposes only to demonstrate airway management, heart chambers and inner works of heart as well as tissue injuries.
