Prepping for People Who Live Alone or Whose Spouse Cannot Help

Preparedness advice often assumes there are multiple capable adults in the home, but that is not always reality. Some people live alone, and others have a spouse who may be out of town, sick, injured, caring for others, or unable to help during a crisis. In this episode, we talk about building an emergency plan that works when you are the only functioning adult available. You will learn how to create a simple check-in plan, use written checklists, arrange supplies so they are easy to reach, prepare medical information, think through transportation backups, and include pets in your plan.  Mentioned in this episode: Support The Show  1791gunleather.com - Use the discount code "prep15" Practical Prepping Facebook Group Hope Blvd Podcast 1791 Gunleather American Made Holsters Use the code "Prep15" for a 15% discount Iron Mike's Kitchen American Sized Travel Guide Download This Episode If you find value in what we do, if you've learned something new, gotten an idea for something you need to do, been entertained, or just like Krista's Southern charm, would you be willing to give back a little?
