During National Emergency Management Awareness Month, here's a reminder that building resilient, disaster ready communities takes planning. A great place to start is to ensure your family has a disaster plan, including emergency contacts, evacuation routes, meeting places, and go bags packed. Sign up for local alerts and look for ways to get involved and volunteer.

Great reminders from Montana Disaster and Emergency Services

Recent wildfire evacuations in Washington and NW Montana remind us to be prepared to evacuate quickly. Build a kit, have an evacuation plan including for pets and livestock, and sign up for local alerts. Heed any evacuation warnings or orders from local officials.

Please join us in giving the biggest hooray to CMTK9 handlers Amanda & Dave for completing the 5 day USAF Inland Search & Rescue School Planning Course! 👏

Amanda described the course as challenging her to look beyond the field operations she knows so well and further develop her skills in search planning, resource management, probability-based decision making, and coordinating complex search incidents. It was an opportunity to learn alongside dedicated search and rescue professionals from across the country, each bringing unique experiences and perspectives.
Every conversation and scenario reinforced that no two searches are ever the same, and there’s always something new to learn.

She is excited to bring these lessons back to her local teams and continue growing as a search and rescue professional and we are grateful to have both her and Dave share their new skills with our team!

“Always Ready, That Others May Live”

🌞Its going to HOT over the next several days!🌞

🌡 Extreme heat can become dangerous quickly, especially for older adults, young children, outdoor workers, athletes, and people with certain health conditions.

Help protect yourself and those around you:

💧Drink plenty of water, even if you don’t feel thirsty.
😓Limit strenuous outdoor activity during the hottest part of the day.
👕Wear lightweight, light-colored clothing.
👴👵Check on neighbors, friends, and family members who may be more vulnerable.
🐕Never leave children or pets in a parked vehicle. Not even for a few minutes!

Know the warning signs of heat illness.🤒

Heavy sweating, weakness, dizziness, headache, nausea, or muscle cramps may be signs of HEAT EXHAUSTION.

Confusion, fainting, seizures, or a very high body temperature may indicate HEAT STROKE, a life-threatening emergency. Call 9-1-1 immediately.

Stay cool, stay hydrated, and take the heat seriously.

A quick check-in with someone you care about could make all the difference.
