Keeping in Touch!
Telephone Contact
It is extremely important that you do not use your telephones indiscriminately after an earthquake or other disaster, but check to make sure that the receiver has not been shaken off the hook. The telephone should only be used for emergency calls.
You should have a telephone contact person who lives out of the area, preferably out of state. Local telephone service may be disrupted, but often you can still call out of state from the disaster area. Separated members can use this contact to find out if everyone in the family is OK, to relay messages, and to set up an alternative meeting place. Family members not living in the area can call this contact to find out if everything is OK.
Remember, after an earthquake, check all your phones to be sure they have not been shaken off the hook and are tying up a line.
