ACTIVITY No. 2

1. If you were trapped in the collapsed building because of the Earthquake, What are you going to do?

•If possible, I would seek refuge beneath a strong table or desk. Outer walls, windows, fireplaces, and
hanging objects should all be avoided. I will also cover myself with blankets and pillows to protect myself
from falling objects.

2. Continuation on No. 1, What would you do if there is someone who is badly injured?

• I would seek if there is an available first aid kit in the area.

•If a person is badly injured or bleeding, put direct pressure on the wound, use clean gauze or cloth if
available.

• If a person is not breathing, you should administer rescue breathing.

•If a person has no pulse, begin CPR

3. What precautions you should do Before, During, After the Earthquake?

BEFORE an Earthquake:

•Make sure you have a fire extinguisher, first aid kit, a battery-powered radio, a flashlight, and extra
batteries at home.

•Make up a plan of where to meet your family after an earthquake.

•Learn basic first aid.

• Don't leave heavy objects on shelves

• Anchor heavy furniture, cupboards, and appliances to the walls or floor.

DURING an Earthquake:

•Keep your cool! Stay inside if you're inside. Stay outside if you're outside.

•If you're outside, get out of the way of power lines and anything else that could collapse. Stay away
from structures (stuff might fall off the building or the building could fall on you).

• Stand against a wall towards the middle of the structure, stand in a doorway, or burrow under heavy
furniture if you're indoors (a desk or table). Keep a safe distance from windows and doors.
•Use no matches, candles, or any other type of flame. Gas lines that have burst and a fire don't mix.

•If you're in a car, come to a complete stop and remain inside until the earthquake has passed.

•Use escalators sparingly (they may shut down).

AFTER an Earthquake:

• Check for injuries in yourself and others. Anyone who requires first assistance should be given it.

•Stay away from any structures that have been damaged.

•Be cautious of shattered glass and other debris. To avoid cutting your feet, use boots or thick shoes.

•Keep an eye out for chimneys (they may fall on you).

•Beaches should be avoided. Tsunamis and seizures can occur after the ground has ceased trembling.

•Stay away from the locations that have been affected.

•Check for damage to water, gas, and electric lines. Shut off the valves if any are damaged. Check for the
presence of a gas odor. If you smell it, open all the windows and doors, get out as soon as possible, and
notify the authorities.
