Children may respond to
disaster by demonstrating
increased anxiety or
emotional and behavioral problems.
Some younger children
may return to earlier behavior
patterns, such as bed wetting
and separation anxiety. Older
children may react to physical
and emotional disruptions with
aggression or withdrawal. Even
children who have only indirect
contact with the disaster may
have unresolved feelings.
In most cases, such responses
are temporary. As time passes,
symptoms usually ease.
H o w e v e r, high winds, sirens or
other reminders of the emotions
associated with the disaster may
cause anxiety to return. Read page here

CELL PHONE TIPS DURING A DISASTER/POWER OUTAGE

Disaster cell phone tips:
Any disaster can cause you to have a power outage.
• Limit non-emergency calls to conserve battery power and free up wireless networks for emergency agencies and operations.
• Send brief text messages rather than making voice calls for the same reasons.
• Don’t leave the house without car-chargers to ensure you have back-up power.
• Keep phones, laptops, PDAs, batteries, chargers and other equipment in a dry, accessible location.
• Forward your home phone calls to your wireless number if you have to evacuate.
• Save emergency phone numbers in your cell phone with one-touch dialing.
