When the shaking stops, look around to make sure it is safe to move. Then exit the building.
Check on the elderly and disabled, and children who need help.
Use the telephone only for emergency calls.
Look for and extinguish small fires. Fire is the most common hazard after an earthquake.
Open cabinet and closet doors cautiously.
Check for gas leaks, look for electrical system damage, and check for sewage and water lines damage.
Stay calm, move away from windows indoors and away from power lines outdoors. Your safest location is on firm ground away from buildings and trees. Do not stay on steeply sloping ground as this may give way. Avoid driving, especially on elevated roadways. Do not enter damaged homes until they can be checked for structural damage.
Keep a portable supply of food and water, and first aid supplies handy in case you must abandon your residence. Leave out whatever food and water you can for pets that are not able to go with you.
During an earthquake, you are supposed to go under a doorway or go in something heavy like a closet. If you are outside and near buildings, you should move away from them as fast as possible, because they could come crashing down, and hit you. Lastly, if you hear a hissing noise or smell gas, quickly go away!
Pack a first aid kit food and water to last three days atleast and prepare for aftershocks. Answered by xiana walton
