That was addressed in other threads.

Return to Base [home] and use whatever communications systems still operational even if it's just the Internet.

I'm a few blocks away from the nearest fire station, about a mile from the police station, a couple of miles from the medical district, there are medical clinics on almost every block on Wheatland Rd., my pharmacy is three blocks north of the police station, the church is well stocked in first aid kits. If I am at work, I'm even closer (except for the fire station). I think I'm covered.

Every car has a radio and I have a battery-powered radio at home.

What will happen if you are exposed to radiation?

I am so far away from the nearest nuclear power plant that a nuclear bomb would be considered a greater threat.

If the mountain will not come to Mahomet, Mahomet must go to the mountain.

It would be anything from a first aid kit to the emergency room at the hospital.

Given where I live, the most likely issue would be the water being turned off.
