Sandestin Community Participates in National Preparedness Month Programs?

9/12/2023 (Permalink)

We are leaders in storm damage restoration in Walton County.

Our local Destin, Seaside, and Freeport teams have been restoring storm damage in Sandestin for over twenty years. Powerful storms can cause severe damage to homes and properties, and we want everyone to be prepared to weather any storm or disaster.

Every September, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) hosts National Preparedness Month, a month filled with information, activities, community initiatives, and awareness campaigns to create awareness about the importance of being prepared for disasters and emergencies. This year, the campaigns focus on elderly populations and their unique needs. Additional resources will be posted on Ready.gov/older-adults.

Addressing the unique needs for support and services older individuals may require in an emergency not only boosts their ability to endure difficult situations but also lessens the effects of emergencies on their well-being. The elderly may encounter heightened risks during disasters due to factors like prescribed medications, reliance on specialized medical equipment, or the need for specific care, all of which can be severely impacted during emergencies. Also, older populations are particularly susceptible to heat or cold-related illnesses and dehydration. By preparing in advance to meet their unique needs, we can safeguard their welfare and maintain their safety during disasters and emergencies.
