Several kinds of disasters may happen in most cities. It’s important to know what to do before, during and after a disaster.

Robert Richardson is a doctor of first aid. He shares some advice on getting prepared for natural disasters.

The first thing to do is to do some research. Try to learn what kind of disasters once hit your city. Find out how people saved themselves after those disasters.

Another key point is to get ready for the basic needs. That means preparing enough water and food at home. When a natural disaster hits, you may have to stay inside your house for days!
