Safety and Health Go Hand in Hand

Most people think about preventing illness when they think about health.  It’s important to also include safety and injury prevention in your health and wellness plans. Emergency preparedness falls into this category.

Now you’re probably wondering, “What does disaster planning have to do with health and wellness?”  It’s simple. Personal wellness means functioning at your best in all areas.  Eating well and exercising is important but it’s just one piece of the optimal health equation.  After all, flat abs and a firm butt can’t protect you from floods, fires, hurricanes or tornadoes. Injury prevention deserves as much attention as illness prevention.

Be safe. Be well.
