Emergency Preparedness Guide from the LAFD
Emergencies can happen with little or no warning. The Los Angeles Fire Department’s Emergency Preparedness Guide provides practical information to help residents plan ahead before a disaster occurs.
The guide is intended to help individuals, families, and neighborhoods think through basic emergency readiness, including household supplies, communication plans, evacuation planning, medical needs, pets, and steps to take before, during, and after an emergency.
For Hollywoodland residents, preparedness is especially important because hillside neighborhoods can face added challenges during fires, earthquakes, power outages, severe weather, road closures, and other emergencies. Reviewing the guide in advance can help residents make informed decisions and be better prepared to protect themselves, their families, and their neighbors.
Residents are encouraged to download or review the guide, keep emergency information easily accessible, and revisit household preparedness plans regularly.
