I loved the pool noodle idea on the bucket. That was genius!
This was great. You triggered a positive thought process with everyone viewing. As a nurse my main concern would be the length of time it would take for help to get to you if someone experienced a heart attack or have chest pain. I would place aspirin 81mg in the first aid kit and encourage the members of the family to learn CPR. The internet has classes anyone can observe and practice. Great information, lovely lady. You did it again.
Agree the new CPR is doable for the layperson.
Ms. Denise you make everything look so nice and special. We have emergency backpacks. Depending on how much you can carry. Please include walkie talkies, heavy duty gloves, protection even if the hubby has to have it. Heavy duty cord, and matches or lighter. Oh and a whistle. Love your videos xoxoxo
Those are excellent ideas. As far as protection...just as some other items...good idea to check on the supply periodically to assure the shelf life or any damage to them
The backpack is a great idea thank you.
Great idea!!!
This is great info! I really love the solar light idea for in case of a power outage! You are so smart!
Hi Ms Denise, this video is very informative and the toilet is so creative. Thanks for sharing.
Here's hoping you never have to use it!🤞
Informative! Also I was listening to a ministry and she stated during hurricane Sandy she learned to carry 10's 5s, 1s, and not 20s'.
A few mini boxes of cereal, powdered milk and a cooler for ice is all I would need to make this complete! 💕
Do they still sell those? I have not seen them in years! Great idea too.
@@garlicgirl3149 Yup!! Certain Supermarkets though 😀
Kitty litter for your noodle/bucket potty, just enough to cover the waste (odors). Try to find folding hand fans, or even ping pong paddles, esp if anyone's going thru the change - unless you have many battery-fans lol. And so much Off, for when the neighbor kids run out at their house haha.
Also, don't forget to bring livestock food in the house. The winds blew our bungeed trash can down, and nasty flood water got in our rabbit food. Took a few hours of door-to-door begging to find a few days worth of carrots.
Great ideas... Especially the potty and the safe. Usually have a emergency bag with clothes and important docs in it to grab in an emergency
You are a GENIUS!! A TRUE GEM my sister! 💎💎💎👑🌟🙌🌺❤️
Please be safe out there everyone! ❤️
I absolutely love this video! You have covered EVERYTHING! Being a traveling nurse you don't know how MANY of these things are a necessity. Thank you so much Denise!
I think of baby wipes to cleanse yourself since the water heaters won't be working without power.
You could also get drain covers to fill any tubs beforehand
Hi sweetie my name is Elizabeth thank you so much for sharing your beautiful ideas and God bless
Great video. I did a emergency kit like this years ago , and I refresh it every 6 months. I also keep a ziplock of fresh underwear, and travel size hygiene in mines Tfs 💕
I have always heard to have on cash on hand in case of a hurricane. I live in In Marion Iowa, right outside of Cedar Rapids, a city of around 132,000 people. We have tornadoes, not hurricanes.
You may have heard, our area was hit by a derecho, an inland hurricane. Our area sustained 140 mph winds.
There were approx. 400,000 people where the derecho hit without power. Ours was out for 8 days, other surrounding areas for longer. We had planned to leave town the next day to move my mother in law. My husband planned to gas up our vehicle on the way out of town. With no power, there are no working gas pumps, no ATM’s, no banks were open. Our grocery store ran on a generator. We also lost cell towers, so no phones at all. Thank goodness for our gas stove and water heater. We could eat and shower.
We had not purchased many groceries as we were leaving town. We emptied the refrigerator and freezer. We invited our neighbors over for breakfast as they had no way to cook. Another wonderful neighbor gave us cash and 4 gallons of gas. We were able to drive an hour north where they had not been hit by the storm, gassed up and drove to Minneapolis.
My point is....no matter where you live, ALWAYS have cash in hand, you never know if you and everyone around will be hit by a storm and all your power is out.
God bless the power line people, they were cheered, brought water, sandwiches, cookies, you name it. We were so appreciative of those men and women!!!
Brillant ideas!! Agree with your genius idea for an instant toilet!!! Consider adding wrapped and sealed packages with clean shoes/flip-flops; package of fresh undies, socks and soft rolled tee-shirts. After Katrina - I was on a discussion group and a number of ladies mentioned how difficult it was to find clean shoes, undies and a tee-shirt after dealing with muddy, stinky, messy water! Also, consider adding a strong plastic bin with a small strong axe, whistles, flash lights and batteries and a large white sheet (to signal for help!) and a couple of packages of tarps and heavy-duty tape to keep in an attic space -- if anyone needs to get up and break through/onto the roof of their house!!
Great hurricane coverage Denise. I am an RV camper, so my portable toilet is in my pick up at all times, even when I am not camping. I hate public restrooms. I am well prepared such as you are...mainly because of my Mother. She was an extraordinarily, amazing woman who raised us to be self sufficient, and well prepared for everything. Organization is key. And you nailed it yet again. I believe you covered everything. Namaste my friend.
I keep saying I’m going to do this. Well now is the time. I’ll be creating a Preparedness Kit or backpack during my birthday staycation. I’m also going to share this video with my nieces and friends. Thank you for the motivation!
Great minds think alike. I created a " Corona Kit" for my car and purse with the same contents. Love the porta potty bucket!
Thank you for such great ideas!! Before the storm!! It was well put together.
Pool noodle hack is genius! Indoor solar lights was brilliant too.
Awesome video Denise. Us Floridians need to stay ready . Love the portable toilet.. brilliant!
That make-shift toilet is GENIUS!! Great video!
Thank you for the video, iI found the First Aid Kit yesterday at TJMAXX I got a with one that says OUCH they were 14.99.
Absolutely fabulous. I reviewed the CDC emergency guide and have been trying to get the items I am missing. You brought up some great ideas in a fresh way. Thank you. Emergency preparedness can be done on a large or small scale just be creative.
Great and helpful video. It is that time of year. Denise, I gotta say, my favorite item is your home made toilet. Now that’s glorified farm style. Love it! 😅
Great video, I never thought of using the noodle for the bucket or the solar lights.
Thank you.
Love how you made a portable toilet. Amazing, now I have a reason to buy pool noodles. You're the best Denise.
Thank you for this. I love the portable toilet idea.
What I pack in my first aid kit is splints or compression band. I had a ankle injury in the past so I have an air cast for it. Just incase I need it I have it. Since it’s already compromised the likelihood of injuring it again during an emergency is high.
Someone once said, "if you stay ready, you won't have to get ready". These were great and necessary tips! Thank you.
Your voice is so calming and soothing! Awesome content!
Thx you my sister...the only thing I'm missing from your list is the "toilet" 😁.....I'll be buying the supplies to make it just in case....I'm also going to buy a portable stove...or whatever the correct name of it is 🙄😊.......
Using the trash bag in the toilet is good, adding a bit of kitty litter on the bag helps a lot.
Thank you for this video! Living in earthquake and fire country we try to be prepared. I like the COVID Kit! Great ideas!
A lot of great ideas!!
Thank you! I was underprepared and didn’t even know it.
Thanks for sharing great idea.
Thanks Denise, very informative.
Awesome share thanks your friend from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷
Great preps and video! If you needed to evacuate temporarily for whatever reason, and had to stay at a hotel, it would be good to budget for that and know your local options. Many include a full breakfast and dinner. If you are part of a rewards program, you might have a free night or two already earned. Stay safe ❤️
This is wonderful!! We have feminine products as well as incontinence products for our neighbors or anyone that may need them. 👍 We also bought camping lights, a small hibachi, coal and cook items that can fit in one bin.
Thank you for so much great info.
This was perfect! Thank you
Thanks so much Denise 💕very helpful information 😘

Denise, Well done! I learned about preparedness in the 80s...earthquake in CA. Now preparing for hurricanes....🙄
Smart tips. Can you film an updated car organization video, for Covid19 safety, long road trips, or weekend getaway.
That's scary! I'll share this video with my sister and nieces. TFS 🌷
Such awesome ideas! think a change of clothes would be good too.
Great to know!!!!
Thank you for this
Hello Denise,
I thought your video was very informative! I learned a few techniques, (i.e., bucket, poole noodle, tissue and the she we) I would like to know where to purchase the urinal for men and women.
Thank you for all your information and efforts
Yes! I thought the same. Also, I recently purchased a similar unisex urinal from Walgreens. It was about $12.
Dang lady! Lol u thought of everything time for me to get shopping for disasters. I got stranded 3 years ago due to snow and had to pee in my hubby cup TMI lol Thank you for sharing ❤
Thank you.
Yes, I'm a Nurse great to have that lol
Excellent 👍🏿😍❤️
Thanks for sharing, I will be using the Noodle to fix a portable toilet 🚽 8-15-2020
For my pets, I have an ER/travel kit (backpack). It contains their vaccination/vet records, leash and harnesses, poop bags, toys, towel, travel water bowl, and wipes. When we hit the road, I take their water, food, and meds.
TFS💞
*♡♡♡♡Hello Denise, thank you for the video. Qe lost power for three days and it has horrible. One question, how do you keep the spool on the bucket?
Baby wipes to bathe, puzzle or coloring books, cuz it get boring with no power. Air mattress is also cooler than a bed when ur power is out
I would like to know we’re you got some of the things from you didn’t list them
