In a life threatening emergency call 000 straight away!
What to do in an emergency
An emergency may include natural disasters; bushfires; severe weather events; flooding or unnatural disasters such as terrorism, large scale rioting.
In any emergency situation, Home in Place follows directions from the lead response agency and strongly advises our tenants to do the same.
During an emergency it is important to keep up to date on what’s happening in your area. Your emergency broadcaster is ABC Local Radio or ABC News 24.
Go to your State Emergency Service and Fire Service websites for information on preparing your home for an emergency and emergency action plans.
