After an emergency

Getting back on your feet and restocking.

Recovery

  • Only return home or use utilities when told it is safe.
  • Check on family and neighbours. Get medical help for injuries or possible carbon monoxide exposure.
  • Photograph damage, keep receipts and contact your insurer or landlord.
  • Replace what you used and update your plan with what you learned.
  • It is normal to feel shaken. Talk to someone, and contact your GP if it does not ease.
