The
Ipswich Public Health Department joins
the Massachusetts Department of Public Health (DPH) in promoting emergency
preparedness as part of the Know Plan
Prepare campaign during September which is National
Preparedness Month. In September, the Public Health Office will be offering
residents complimentary emergency planning guides and
flashlights.
Know Plan Prepare is a statewide campaign
to encourage residents, families and communities to make plans and prepare for public
health and medical emergencies, severe weather, and natural disasters. The
campaign features local access television programming, online videos and
resources and social media components developed by the DPH Emergency
Preparedness Bureau, in partnership with state and local agencies.
