Put your emergency plan into action
Once you have completed your emergency plan and have taken the steps to get prepared for an emergency, you need to understand how to put your plan into action.
Residents are encouraged to leave the night before, or early in the morning on a day where dangerous conditions are expected.
When an emergency breaks, get your plan out and start to follow it. You have put a great deal of effort into creating this plan, and you most likely did it when you were calm and could think clearly. In the panic of an emergency, don’t second guess yourself, stick to your plan.
If you haven’t made a plan then you need to act immediately to protect yourself and your family. Ensure you have the Vic Emergency App that will give you information and speak to your neighbours so you can work together.
