Get Prepared: Trillium Health Hosts Post-Disaster Simulation in Burgaw

Burgaw, NC – Are you ready for the unexpected? Trillium Health is taking a proactive approach to community preparedness by hosting a Post-Disaster Simulation at the Burgaw Middle School Gym this month. This valuable event offers residents a unique opportunity to learn critical skills and understand the steps necessary to navigate life after a disaster.
Why a Post-Disaster Simulation?
North Carolina, like many regions, faces a range of potential disasters – from hurricanes and floods to severe storms and power outages. While we can't prevent these events, we can prepare for them. A post-disaster simulation provides a safe and controlled environment to explore what life might look like in the aftermath of a crisis, allowing individuals and families to identify gaps in their preparedness plans and gain practical knowledge.
What to Expect at the Simulation
The simulation isn't just about lectures and presentations. It's an interactive experience designed to immerse participants in a realistic scenario. Expect to:
- Learn about essential disaster preparedness measures: Discover practical tips for creating emergency kits, developing communication plans, and securing your home.
- Navigate a simulated post-disaster environment: Walk through a realistic scenario, encountering common challenges and learning how to respond effectively.
- Understand available resources: Become familiar with local emergency services, shelters, and support organizations.
- Practice essential skills: Gain hands-on experience with basic first aid, communication techniques, and resource management.
Who Should Attend?
This event is open to everyone in the Burgaw community, regardless of age or background. Whether you're a homeowner, renter, family with young children, or a senior citizen, the knowledge and skills gained at this simulation will be invaluable.
