Putnam County

REAL TIME CLOSINGS
NONE AT THIS TIME.

Are You Ready?

Be Prepared

  • Are You Ready?

    No one knows when an emergency will happen or what kind of emergency it will be… weather-related emergencies including storms, flooding or power outages, disease outbreaks or even man-made disasters.

    Each of us needs to “Be Prepared” in the event of an emergency. Putnam County Government can help. This webpage provides a wide range of information and tools to help you and your family prepare for emergencies.

  • Make a “GO-BAG”

    Assemble supplies you might need in an evacuation and store them in an easy to carry container such as a duffle bag or backpack.

    Store your “Go Bag” in a place where it will not freeze.

    It is a good idea to review the content once a year to check on items that may have expiration dates, such as prescription medicines.

  • What to Include in your Go Bag Check List

    What to include in your Go Bag:

    • A supply of water — one gallon per person, per day — sealed in unbreakable containers
    • Non-perishable packaged or canned food and a manual can opener
    • Whistle
    • A change of clothing, rain gear, and sturdy shoes
    • Permanent marker, paper, and tape
    • Blankets or sleeping bags
    • Local map
    • A first aid kit and prescription medicines
    • A battery-powered radio, flashlight (or crank-style version), and spare batteries for each
    • Credit cards and $100 cash in small bills and quarters for pay phones. Consider a pre-paid phone card.
    • List of emergency contact phone numbers
    • List of allergies to any drugs (especially antibiotics) or food
    • Copy of health insurance and identification cards
    • Extra keys to your house and vehicles
    • Toothbrush and toothpaste
    • Photos of family members and pets for re-identification purposes
    • Special items for infants or elderly or disabled family members
    • As a precaution, you can also add a CD or a flash drive to which you have saved some of these important papers and documents, such as:
      Birth certificates
      Drivers license
      Prescriptions – list of prescription type, number and doctor’s name and phone number
      Proof of Residency – Mortgage bill / Renters agreement
      Renters / Home owner’s insurance coverage
      Medical insurance coverage
      Life insurance coverage
