This PPN "Ready. Set. Go!" podcast discusses how water, while necessary for life, can also cause great harm during disasters like hurricanes. Brooke Gunderson, a nurse who lived through Hurricane Helene in North Carolina, shares her story of dealing with flooding and losing power and water at the hospital. The experience changed how she thinks about being prepared for emergencies. It also highlights resources to help families and healthcare workers get ready for hurricane season and respond safely when disasters happen. (Season 3, Episode 7)
