Lesson Overview

6.34 – Handling Medications During Emergency Situations: Emergencies test organization, but preparation safeguards treatment continuity. Keep a small go-bag with at least three days of medication labeled clearly. Include a printed list of names, dosages, and doctor contacts in waterproof sleeves. Store copies of prescriptions on your phone or cloud for easy pharmacy transfers. During disasters or evacuations, prioritize medication first—replace later items afterward. Rotate stored supplies regularly so none expire unnoticed. If refrigeration is required, use insulated packs or portable coolers. Inform emergency personnel about any life-sustaining drugs immediately upon arrival. Quick access prevents withdrawal or symptom relapse under stress. Practicing readiness once a month ensures automatic calm when crisis strikes. Emergency preparedness transforms uncertainty into capability and protects hard-earned stability.
