means to take specific actions identified by your local or county health departments or by the New Jersey Department of Health and Senior Services, in response to an emergency. </p> <p>For example, if an industrial accident releases radioactive iodine into the environment, you may be directed to take Potassium Iodide (KI) pills. </p> <p>If an outbreak of disease or an act of bioterrorism creates the danger of bacterial or viral infection, you may be directed to report to specific locations at which medicine or other forms of health care will be provided. </p> <hr /> <!-- SHOW/HIDE ACCORDION

TV.</strong> They may also alert entire areas via community notification systems such as &ldquo;<strong>Reverse 911</strong>,&rdquo; which sends messages to home telephones. Officials may even travel with bullhorns in certain areas.</p> <p>Remember: <strong>Your single greatest information source before, during and after an emergency will be your battery-powered radio. </strong></p> <p><strong> 聽</strong>Also remember:<strong> If an emergency is taking place and you are unsure what to do</strong>, first Shelter-in-Place. Then listen to the radio or TV for instructions from emergency management officials, and follow those instructions.</p> <p>If you are unable to listen to the radio or TV or believe you may miss these messages, make arrangements with someone in your neighborhood. Make sure someone will reach out to you, to keep you informed.</p> </div> <!-- end accordion-inner --> </div> </div> <!-- end group --> <!-- END 1 --> <!-- BEGIN 2 --> <div class="accordion-group"> <div class="accordion-heading"> <a class="accordion-toggle collapsed" data-toggle="collapse" data-parent="#accordion1" href="#information" title="information"> <h3>Further Information</h3> </a></div> <!-- end accordion-heading --> <div id="information" class="accordion-body collapse"> <div class="accordion-inner"> <p>Follow this link if you have <strong><a href="access-functional-needs.shtml">Disabilities or other Special Needs</a></strong>.Individuals with special needs often require additional time and assistance to prepare for a disaster.</p> <p>Follow this link if you have <strong><a href="pets.shtml">Pets</a></strong> other than Americans with Disabilities Act service animals.
