Earthquakes happen almost every day in Washington, according to the Washington State Department of Natural Resources<\/a>. Most are too small to be felt or cause damage.<\/p>\n

Large earthquakes, the kind that can cause major damage, happen rarely, but are always a possibility. So knowing what to do in case of an earthquake is important for everyone who lives here.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Great Washington ShakeOut<\/a>, a statewide earthquake preparedness drill set to take place on Thursday, Oct. 18, at 10:18am, is part of a global initiative to raise awareness about what to do during \u2014 and after \u2014 an earthquake.<\/p>\n

More than one million participants have registered so far in the state to join this voluntary drill, including individuals, families, schools, businesses and hospitals.<\/p>\n

MultiCare Allenmore Hospital, MultiCare Tacoma General Hospital and Mary Bridge Children\u2019s Hospital have signed up to participate.<\/p>\n

At 10:18am on Oct. 18 \u2014 that\u2019s 10:18 on 10\/18 \u2014 employees on these\u00a0campuses will \u201cDrop, cover and hold on\u201d for 60 seconds.<\/p>\n

Operating room and catheter lab staff, as well as any staff supporting an ongoing patient procedure, will pause and assess, rather than \u201cDrop, cover and hold on,\u201d to ensure patient safety.<\/p>\n

Do you and your family know how to protect yourselves during an earthquake? Are you prepared for what might come after? Visit the Great Washington ShakeOut’s\u00a0website\u00a0<\/a>for more details about the Great Washington ShakeOut, as well as for other earthquake preparedness resources.<\/p>\n
