Personal Preparedness

James A. DeMeo, Author of the bestselling book on Family Safety & Preparedness entitled, What’s Your Plan? A Step-By-Step Guide to Keep Your Family Safe During Emergency Situations participates in Risk Roundup to discuss Personal Preparedness.

Personal Preparedness

Crisis and Catastrophe can happen anytime and anywhere to anyone. It strikes without any warning, can occur in just a few seconds, are private, and no one has any immunity from it. As a result, security is becoming a complex challenge.

Be it cyber-attacks or terrorist attacks, natural disasters, or human-made disasters, the time has come when everyone across nations needs to evaluate how best to prevent attacks from all contested commons and be prepared. Since everyone is accountable for their security disasters, it is imperative that we all understand the importance of personal preparedness.

It is because personal preparedness lessens the impact on individuals, families, communities, and entities across nations: its government, industries, organizations, and academia. To recognize what to do before, during, and after any crisis is a critical part of being prepared. That brings us to some essential questions:

• What different attacks possibilities we need to prepare for today?
• Since there are many different types of crisis and catastrophe that can happen to any individual, would each kind of crisis require different preparation?
• How to prepare for any attacks?
• Is there any training available for individuals to go through?
• If there is such training available, what should the training for personal preparedness cover?

It seems that some of the essential protective actions would be similar for multiple security threats, and now is the best time to learn more about the effects of these risks and how each one of us should respond to any disasters. The time is now to focus on Personal Preparedness.
