In recent weeks, this has been a far too common news headline, and it has wildfires front and center in our minds. They remain a real risk for families and seniors in San Gabriel Valley.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As September nears its close, Disaster Preparedness Month has never been a more appropriate marker for this time. It\u2019s always important to prepare for natural and manmade disasters, but that\u2019s never truer than when wildfires are so close to our homes and causing such an immediate threat to many of our neighbors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have not yet made your disaster preparedness plan, use this as your call to action to start. Having a plan helps you to react quickly in an emergency, know where and how to reach safety and ensure that every member of your family reaches safety.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are many people in our lives with unique needs, but as we prepare to stay safe in a wildfire, it\u2019s especially important to consider frail, elderly loved ones who will likely need extra support to react quickly and get to safety. Seniors with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salushomecare.com\/san-gabriel-valley\/blog\/the-three-stages-of-alzheimers\/\">dementia<\/a>, those with physical limitations and anyone who has been diagnosed with a serious medical condition might need additional support or for the family to take special measures in order to keep them safe. Salus offers these tips to consider as you prepare.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Red Cross Ready in San Gabriel Valley<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to surviving a natural disaster, preparation means everything. Seconds count when your community is being evacuated, and as the fires burn closer, the risks of harm increase. It\u2019s vital to keep track of where the dangers are so that you are ready to leave at a moment\u2019s notice and get to safety. Red Cross Ready is an important reminder of this, and it includes steps to help you prepare throughout this process. Start by having an up-to-date understanding of any wildfires posing a direct threat in your community and how winds and other environmental factors are influencing potential threats. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The air quality in your community might also be impacted by a wildfire that\u2019s further away, so even if you aren\u2019t in the direct line of flames, there could be other reasons to evacuate.

Later, she served as a social worker and case manager for Services to Maintain Independence at the Department of Social Services for one of the largest counties in North Carolina. In that role, her goal was to assist clients who wished to age in place, providing them with resources, information and support that made it easier to safely remain at home. Today, Christine's role has shifted, and she focuses on providing families and seniors with support through digital media platforms as they navigate information, search for tools to overcome isolation and find ways to stay more connected to society while aging in place. Christine is passionate about helping seniors to maintain independence and providing families with the information they need to overcome challenges associated with dementia, physical health conditions and the aging process.

She spent the earliest part of her career assisting clients and supporting family caregivers in skilled nursing and assisted living facilities. Later, she served as a social worker and case manager for Services to Maintain Independence at the Department of Social Services for one of the largest counties in North Carolina. In that role, her goal was to assist clients who wished to age in place, providing them with resources, information and support that made it easier to safely remain at home. Today, Christine's role has shifted, and she focuses on providing families and seniors with support through digital media platforms as they navigate information, search for tools to overcome isolation and find ways to stay more connected to society while aging in place. Christine is passionate about helping seniors to maintain independence and providing families with the information they need to overcome challenges associated with dementia, physical health conditions and the aging process. She remains active in her community through volunteer work and advocacy, and in her spare time, enjoys spending time with her husband and three children."}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.salushomecare.com\/san-gabriel-valley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9348","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.salushomecare.com\/san-gabriel-valley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.salushomecare.com\/san-gabriel-valley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.salushomecare.com\/san-gabriel-valley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.salushomecare.com\/san-gabriel-valley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9348"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.salushomecare.com\/san-gabriel-valley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9348\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9357,"href":"https:\/\/www.salushomecare.com\/san-gabriel-valley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9348\/revisions\/9357"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.salushomecare.com\/san-gabriel-valley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9352"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.salushomecare.com\/san-gabriel-valley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9348"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.salushomecare.com\/san-gabriel-valley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9348"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.salushomecare.com\/san-gabriel-valley\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9348"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
