Being prepared for an emergency means being equipped with the proper supplies.  Your kit supplies should be easy to carry and quick to grab.

September is #NationalPreparednessMonth and it is the right time to prepare.  @AmericanRed Cross suggests, at the very least,  to have the basic supplies listed below:

• Water: one gallon per person, per day (3-day supply for evacuation, 2 week supply for home)
• Food; non-perishable, easy-to-prepare items(3-day supply for evacuation, 2-week supply for home).
• Flashlight
• Battery-powered or hand-crank radio 
• Extra batteries
• First aid kit
• Medications (7-day supply) and medical items
• Multi-purpose tool
• Sanitation and personal hygiene items
• Copies of personal documents (medication list and pertinent medial information, proof of address, deed/lease to home, passports, birth certificates, insurance policies)
• Cell phone with chargers
• Family and emergency contact information
• Extra cash
• Emergency blanket
• Map(s) of the area

Anatomy of a first aid kit, a handy thing to have.
