Emergency supply requirements vary depending on your needs. You will need to decide which essential items to include for yourself and your family. Here are some things to consider:

Breastfeeding aides, formula, bottles, baby food and extra water
Diapers, wipes and extra changes of clothes
Prenatal vitamins, ointments and medications for mom and baby (over-the-counter and prescription)
Persons with disabilities and special needs will want to include additional supports. For example, a person in a wheelchair will want to include:

Supply of inner tubes
Pair of heavy gloves (to protect your hands while wheeling over glass or other sharp debris)

A lightweight, manual wheelchair as a backup to a motorized wheelchair (if feasible)

MedicAlert bracelet or identification
Extra supply of insulin or oral agent
Pump supplies, syringes, needles and insulin pens (if used)

Tips for building and maintaining your kits:
Your kit should be updated every six months to ensure food and medications are not expired, the water is fresh, clothing still fits, personal documents and credit cards are up-to-date, and batteries are charged.
Take away the hassle of remembering by setting a reminder on your calendar or use daylight savings as your reminder to update your emergency kits.
Consider seasonal requirements when you update your kits. In the spring include bug spray, sunscreen and hats. In the fall you trade the bug spray for warm clothing and extra blankets.
When packing your kits, dividing items into groups and packing them in Ziploc bags not only helps with organization but it can prevent leakage caused by melting, broken or spoiled items.
