9/5/2023 (Permalink)

We are leaders in storm damage restoration services in Washington County.

Our local Crestview, DeFuniak Springs, and Chipley teams are Here to Help ® when disaster strikes. For over twenty years, our highly trained teams have been responding to storm damage emergencies in Washington County. We have the training, equipment, and experience to mitigate and restore storm damage, no matter how extensive the damage is.

National Preparedness Month occurs each year in September and during this month the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) hosts various activities and initiatives to raise awareness and promote disaster and emergency preparedness. This year the focus is on elderly populations, and engaging communities to meet the needs of older adults and ensuring they have access to preparedness resources they need. 

The American Red Cross sites several risk factors that make older adults more vulnerable after disasters, including, but not limited to:

• Greater likelihood to suffer from chronic conditions and the need for associated medications
• Greater reliance on assistive devices such as walkers or glasses, as well as support from caregivers and others
•  Increased likelihood of social isolation
