ST. MARTIN PARISH OFFICE OF HOMELAND SECURITY & EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS
THINGS YOU CAN DO TODAY TO PREPAR FOR THE IMPENDING STORM: Check the supplies you have on hand. Do you have flashlights? Batteries? Water? Canned food or things that can be prepared without heat? Check your prescriptions. Make sure you have five days of any medications on hand.
Walk around the outside of your house. Check for branches that need to be removed. Secure things that could fly around in wind. Then check on your neighbors, especially if they are elderly. Do they have what they need on hand?
Finally -- Don’t forget about your pets! Do you have their food on hand? If you have to leave, make a plan to go to a place where you can take them with you.
WELCOME to the St. Martin Parish Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness (OHSEP) website. Our mission is to coordinate response to natural and man-made disasters, including acts of terrorism; to plan and prepare responsible programs for the protection of life and property; to direct, mobilize, coordinate, and determine utilization of resources; and to coordinate and direct restoration and recovery operations in the disaster area.
