Emergencies can be the result of man-made or natural causes, and include hurricanes, floods, tornadoes, explosions, civil disturbances, fires, toxic gas releases, chemical spills, radiological accidents, workplace violence, and unfortunately, terrorism.

Few people can think clearly and logically in a crisis, and that is why it is so important to prepare for an emergency before it happens.
