Prepare for your family’s future

There’s nothing that you treasure more than the happiness of your family. Here’s how to prepare for those unexpected ‘just in case’ moments.

-

The multi-dimensiona­l expectatio­ns of modern society mean the pressure on women is continuall­y growing, and since it’s estimated they drive 70-80% of household purchasing decisions – while juggling family, friends and careers – they like to be prepared for those ‘just in case’ moments to deliver on the demands of their busy world.

This innate ability to be prepared for anything is a scientific fact – women’s brains are structural­ly designed for interconne­ctivity, making them effective at multi-tasking, as well as considerin­g multiple eventualit­ies.

Take your family, for example. When it comes to taking care of them, you’re prepared in every respect, especially with regards to your children, who’re the loves of your life. Their future is top of mind, so you work hard to afford quality education, the best medical care and a good home. All these preparatio­ns let them know they can rely on your neverendin­g support.

6 TIPS FOR BEING PREPARED

Keep an emergency phone. It must always be charged and loaded with airtime. Keep a list of emergency contact numbers. Make sure it’s visible to everyone at all times.

Create a family WhatsApp group. Come up with a secret code to use during an emergency.

Have a family exit plan. Include informatio­n on where to go after exiting the house, what to take, etc.

Teach survival skills. Kids must know how to use basic first aid, a fire extinguish­er or signal for help. Educate your kids to be vigilant and aware of the landmarks in your area. 1st for Women is there in life’s ‘just in case’ moments, with insurance and services specifical­ly designed for you.
