Great reminders. When I joined CERT 20 years ago it was 3 days worth of food, Then it quickly became 3 weeks worth of food and by the time of housing crash in 08 they were telling us to have 3 months of food and meds. They trained us to take care of our family and home first because how could we help others if our families didn't have enough.

[@dsonnek7781]

A cheap and very effective item to add to your first aid kit, super glue. Works great for small to larger cuts, specially if you can't get stitches right away. Start at the bottom of the cut, pinch the skin and apply, dries quickly. Work your way up the cut, if you start at the top, glue could run into the cut and make a wider scare later. It works great, i know from experience.

[@skezeksskybreaker5425]

For can openers I recommend you get the small and inexpensive military can openers. They are ultra lightweight and can go on your keychains.

[@John-li6tn]

I've carried one on my keychain for ever, my father & I were both Military. I would collect them from C Rations & give them out to friends & family. Just remember to wrap a small piece of tape or band around it, saves your fingers & pockets.

[@deniseeulert2503]

The part about having copies of documents reminded me of a book I read about the 1906 San Francisco earthquake. One of the casualties in that disaster was City Hall, which burned to the ground. The book was writen in the 1960's and it said that some older people still had to rely on alternate forms of ID to prove their age for Social Security, and other programs. Things like church records or newspaper articles with birth records. Also, the mention of paper and plasticware to save time is good, but there is another time they come in handy. When someone dies everyone brings over food, but nobody wants to do dishes. My mother would always give disposable tableware and napkins, and paper towels, instead of food.

[@MexicoDigDoctor]

Especially interesting about the San Francisco earthquake ! I live In Mexico, and I can't tell you how much has been lost both before and after the Conquest. I know some people are going to say there was no "writing" down here before the conquest, but in some areas there actually was. There were also many pictographic-type documents, and LOTS of property documents. They were painted on bark paper, deer and other animal hides, and stuccoed walls, as well as etched in stone in some places like the Maya area. These days I would also suggest trying to scan as many family pictures as you can on a little thumb drive. They even have special machines for it, called an Iris... I think they are about $100 or less. I think that only uses chips but I'm not sure because I haven't had a chance to use mine yet. At the very least, take along with you the latest pictures of any family members in case they need to be identified during the disaster, as well as the oldest pictures of as much of your family as you have. Generations will cherish these things , but lets just hope it never comes to needing the "Important Document Bug Out Bag". God bless you, stay safe, and thank you again for sharing all of that with us.

Walmart has blow up solar lights for around $20 in their camping section. I adore them! They last a good amount of time and I just put them on the dash of my car to charge. Safe and fun for littles as opposed to candles. They will light an 10x10 room.

[@Southern195]

Never heard of these! I will have to look them up. 😁

[@constancepullen810]

I have two. After the overhead light blew in the stairwell I would set them out on the outside landing to charge and bring them in when I return. One goes on the handrail to the bedrooms and the other in the bathroom shower to maximize the light so I don't trip, etc. I'm 70.

[@davidblanchard5252]

[@gailoreilly1516]

I know people who only watch the local news, they do not search these sites. If our government REALLY wanted to help, they would put these lists on the local news. A couple of days before a terrible storm is not long enough to reach people.

[@SgtSkrog]

Love these lists. For first aid you mentioned getting things in addition. In an area more prone for tornado, impact trauma. Forest fire, burns and smoke. I like to think of it by what do I want/need if no store and no medical help. I think you can never go wrong having these items with the hope never needed. Your list is better then FEMA. Which of course is no surprise. That part is sad.

[@AmyHonious]

Agreed 💯

[@mountainmama7672]

Hubs is a fireman so our kits have a little bit of everything. It’s best to have some kind of training as well for bigger issues (big bleeding injuries, shock). A local fire department had basic, intermediate and advanced EMT classes a couple times a year.

[@ronndapagan]

I have had to have first aid training as well as CPR when I worked in day care. Also when I was a Girl Scout leader, first aid badge was one of the first badges we worked on after the handicap badge. Every camp out we practiced our first aid skills to always be prepared.

[@radam8966]

"We are from the government and here to help" As a reminder for some and those that aren't aware; after huge hurricane that Louisiana late 2000nds, they were going door to door taking selfdefense items. And a few brush between volunteer rescue teams and LEO's in Texas a few years later. So one could presume, as a government agency, they don't care for anybody to think of selfdefense items. Like him, love him, hate him or indifferent, Ronald Reagan made some good points.

[@rmason5477]

Government 💣💣💣💣💣💣💣💣👇

[@ericarnaud7983]

Hey JR....those list are helpful to people who have no knowledge on how to get started. The trouble with most of the government list is not only how to use, process, cook, etc is they are also just basic and need to be upscaled and expanded. Then those list do not take into account "security" to family and property. Remember, even during hurricanes along the coast, you always hear news stories about looting. My thought on these list, if you have never prepared for a future situation, they are a good basic list to start. 👍

[@robertcritchley1338]

Prepared well beyond the list. That's the problem. I don't need to leave the yard, and although it isn't wise to let people see this, I detest having to wait in FEMA line wasting gas that I can use in my generator. Harvest Right and mylar paks, Sawyer, Katadyn, and everything in between, is definitely the way to go. It's just too bad there are folks that just wait to the last moment, and there're the rudest. Super mentioned extras. See you on the next run. Thanks.

[@scrapykat3028]

Chem lights are great to have in your preps! They’ll last all night and I use them in bathroom and by the stairs! The chem lights placed on pets collars and halters so you don’t trip on them. Littles will feel safer if they have them to wear.

[@graylor1]

For caregivers, know how to transport things safely. Like, my dad had COPD, so there was an oxygen concentrator, a portable oxygen concentrator, several little bottles of oxygen, a couple medium sized, and one big bottle that would have been difficult to fit in the car. How explosive should all that be considered? Oh, and have spare accessories for this stuff in the go bags--when you need to open a new bottle of oxygen you don't have time to hunt a key.

[@anneyday3493]

I recently added professional tourniquets to my first aid kits, for house and car, and a Life Vac choke prevention/rescue tool. A good-sized air horn for the tornado shelter for signaling, camp toilet supplies also in the tornado shelter. Fire extinguishers in cars, at every door, in the kitchen, near the fireplace and at the outdoor grill. Great video as always, thanks!

[@hackmedia7755]

The best thing you can prep is social skills. Plan how you will start a farm again with people. Get people to work together instead of shooting at each other after SHTF. So many channels dont understand this and will keep focusing on a fend for yourself situation instead of restoring production of food, water and electrical power.

[@donnabacon4681]

Very good and valid point. People need to work together and not against; it doesn't have to be a panic situation if we work together. Thank you!!

[@lewis9888]

I keep cases of bottled water in totes in case they leak, it won't make a mess. I've got a couple battery chargers with AA batteries. I don't use other sizes much. The nearest train tracks are several miles from my farm. Even though I am on Municipal Water, I have a hand dug well with a hand pump in it. I have a pocket size solar charger with battery to charge my cell phone or anything else I need to charge up. I do need a few more fire extinguishers and women's pads. Be safe my friends.

[@lynnlamont3485]

A few good things to have in a medical kit are wrist immobilizers and ankle immobilizers, a blood sugar monitor and strips, Benadryl capsules and ointment or spray, Tylenol, Aspirin, Motrin, hemostats, bandage scissors, surgical tape, a suture kit.

[@ronndapagan]

We keep our knee braces and wrist braces just in case we need them.

As always you've covered a lot of really important information in your video content and I most sincerely thank you for that. These lists are fine for short term localized disasters, but for anything widespread or even nationwide, FEMA and the Red Cross will be so overwhelmed that we may never see them. The best prep list is the one that makes you self reliant and I'm trying my best to get there.

[@rebeccablack8112]

The good thing about paper plates is that you can use them when you’re done to start a fire. It will significantly cut down on waste if you burn them instead of just throwing them away. Plus you can use the ashes in your garden beds

It’s unfortunate the government gruesomely overestimates their ability to retain control after a harsher calamity , even modern storms which can cause outages potentially lasting weeks as per a poster in this comment section Or even the winter storm that hit Texas should have prompted an update How some people can not only make fun of even basic prepping and homesteading AND listen to the government suggestions at the same time is a lesson for us to consider when prepping for longer periods of outages or large areas of loss of service

The empty laundry and fabric softener jugs are good to fill with water to use for cleaning after a disaster. We keep our first aid supplies and basic hygiene and over the counter medications on hand and when we travel. We just need to get our important documents put in place to grab when we need to. We have a large collection of board games and card games. We have a grill as needed as well as a portable fire pit and a small propane grill for cooking. The only thing we need is a radio and generator.

[@lostboy8084]

Things that you should have just recently had to go through over a month without power and a week without water due to a super typhoon. Gas for your generator and vehicle, a portable ice maker or solar power ice cooler something that you can keep items cold especially if you have medication such as insulin; a solar or battery powered fan or air conditioner and I guess in some instances heater, a method to wash and clothes I mention these because few other prepping people don't mention them maybe they have say a generator that will take care of it but you will find that gas runs out quickly and if you can't get more a second method should be considered.

If you live in an apartment what would you recommend for cooking indoors? I'm elderly and have no idea. Thank you?

Hi J.R.- question: are the rechargeable batteries ok for any item that runs on batteries as an option? Radio lights etc. Thanks for your channel! ☮️

You can get a emergency radio with flashlight and charger that can be powered by hand crank. It also has battery backup & cord to charge via electric. 1st choice is to keep charged up with electricity. But love the hand crank.

I live in a first floor townhouse. What can I do if the sewage backs up in my house if the pumps stop working?

[@lostboy8084]

You could possibly use a portable pump and find a sewage drain securely close up the room, but honestly I would think of leaving the house.

@@waynespurlin8211 Gotta stay positive. Try building relationships with neighbors. Show them you care about them. Continue to say hello, or have a good day.., even if they ignore you. .
