September is Preparedness Month, but preparedness isn’t only bottled water, batteries, and a flashlight.
Sometimes preparedness sounds like this:
“Mom is in the hospital and we need a Power of Attorney signed.”
“Dad can’t leave the nursing facility.”
“We thought we had more time.”
Those are the kinds of calls I receive in real life.
Important documents are easy to put off when everything is going well. The problem is that emergencies rarely give us advance notice.
This month, take a few minutes to check the things that don’t fit inside an emergency kit:
✔️ Do you know where your important documents are?
✔️ Is your identification current and easy to locate?
✔️ Does your family know who to contact if you need help?
✔️ If documents need notarized, do you have a plan for someone who cannot easily leave home?
As a Medical Mobile Notary Specialist, I travel to homes, hospitals, nursing facilities, assisted-living communities, and hospice settings throughout Cambria and Somerset Counties.
Preparedness isn’t predicting the emergency.
It’s making sure you’re not starting from zero when one happens.
