Emergency Preparedness

Be Prepared

Being prepared means considering how any emergency could affect you—at home, on the road, or at work. How would each of these settings impact your preparedness? #BePrepared at work by: 

  • Keeping a mini kit at the office that includes items such as snacks, hygiene items, a back-up supply of medication(s), and a first aid kit. 
  • Reviewing your company’s emergency plan to learn what to do during a disruption. 
  • If you’re in a leadership role, build organizational resilience through risk literacy training and discussing hazards that may impact your staff.  

 

Whether you are at work or at home, preparedness helps reduce the impact of emergencies and supports a quicker return to daily life. Learn more about how you can prepare and protect yourself and your loved ones with Be Prepared programming and resources. 

Sturgeon Regional Emergency Management Plan

 

Legal along with Bon Accord, Gibbons, Morinville, Redwater and Sturgeon County have cooperatively developed Sturgeon Regional Emergency Management Partnership (SREMP) with the support and approval from the Minister of Municipal Affairs. 

SREMP promotes increased co-ordination, co-operation, collaboration, capacity, and integration by all six member municipalities and the province during all phases of emergency management: planning and preparedness, response, recovery and mitigation. The Plan also enhances emergency preparedness, public education, and common public messaging for each of the key hazards the region may face and will strengthen regional information sharing, communications, and joint planning, training, and exercises.
