    From http://pubs.usgs.gov/gip/2005/15/:

    STEP 1. Identify potential hazards in your home and begin to fix them.
    STEP 2. Create a disaster-preparedness plan.
    STEP 3. Create disaster kits.
    STEP 4. Identify your building’s potential weaknesses and begin to fix them.
    STEP 5. Protect yourself during earthquake shaking.
    STEP 6. After the quake, check for injuries and damage.
    STEP 7. When safe, continue to follow your disaster-preparedness plan.

    My favorite is #6. I’ve never had to check for an injury I’ve always just kind of known. :)

    Great list of resources though !!
