Our state government has
Emergency Management Queensland (<---linky), under which is their
Be Prepared (<---linky) section. There's lots of information there, essentially leading to four downloadable PDFs:
Household Emergency Plan checklist
(linked from page http://www.emergency.qld.gov.au/emq/...seholdplan.asp)
Household Evacuation information and Evacuation Kit checklist
(linked from page http://www.emergency.qld.gov.au/emq/...acplanning.asp)
Household Emergency Kit checklist
(linked from page http://www.emergency.qld.gov.au/emq/...ergencykit.asp)
Prepared Home Checklist
(linked from page http://www.emergency.qld.gov.au/emq/css/preparehome.asp)
Some of the above might all be combined under the
SES (State Emergency Service) Get Ready Guide (<---PDF linky) but I haven't fully checked that out yet.
The
Be Prepared page specifies four major emergencies (all of the below are linkies):
We're on high ground. I'm going to have to look up some stuff on bushfire (we're in the bushfire zone...as well as the landslip zone, FWIW) and also, of course, the
Prepare Your Pets (<---linky) bit.
