Floods and Your Health

Our neighbors, friends, and co-workers are in the process of trying to put their lives together after the devastating floods after Tropical Storm Lee and Hurricane Irene. The Disaster Information Management Research Center (DIMRC) has links to information that will help you deal with the potential hazards you may encounter when cleaning and rehabilitating homes and businesses. The page on floods has links to many other government agencies with information on health and safety in a flooding disaster. There is also a link to the MedlinePlus Flood page, which offers even more information. Our hearts go out to those affected.
