We’re all ready to celebrate the new year, but your safety is the most important! Here’s a New Year’s Eve Safety Guide to help your night go as smoothly as possible!
Plan Ahead
Determine your plans ahead of time and have a general idea of who you’ll be with and how you will get there. Of course, keep your plan fluid, but don’t put yourself in a risky situation by making last-minute plans.
Be Responsible
As long as you’re of legal age, drinking during parties is a great way to get in the spirit! But you need to make sure you’re being safe afterwards. Make sure you have a designated sober driver, or arrange for another form of transportation.
Be Aware
If you’re walking around town or hanging out in large crowds, make sure to stay alert. Be aware of dark streets, people walking around you, and anything people might try to slip into your drink.
Buddy System
The name sounds very elementary, but it’s always better to have someone you trust nearby! You can keep an eye out for each other and be there to help if anything goes wrong.
Stay Prepared
If you run into an emergency situation, you’re going to wish you were prepared. So gear up with safety devices to make sure you feel comfortable. No matter how you get home, keep your resqme® on you! You never know if you might have to use it to save yourself or someone else in danger! Also be sure to keep your defendme® on hand to notify others of a dangerous situation if you find yourself in one!
Keep Your Phone Charged
In case of any type of emergency, having an active phone to call for help will ease your mind. To make your life easier, add some emergency contacts on your phone, and make sure someone has access to your password. And if you need assistance, don’t hesitate calling 911 for medical or professional help!
Now that you have these tips in mind, you can start planning your plans & outfit! Remember to stay safe & ring in the New Year with joy & good luck!!
Happy New Year and all the best for 2023 from the resqme team!
