Prepare for Hurricane Florence by Protecting Your Important Documents with Digital LifeCloud®

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 12, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- The recent wave of natural disasters and the potential impact on the southeast from Hurricane Florence is a reminder that the days of storing things in a cardboard box or your desktop computer are dangerous.  Everyone needs to have an emergency preparedness plan that includes protecting important papers and documents in an online system. Digital LifeCloud®  (www.DigitalLifeCloud.com) is that platform.  It is an award-winning cloud service that allows you to easily and securely store the important information that runs your life.  If an emergency occurs, you can retrieve it immediately.

"There's no file cabinet that could have survived the devastation of Hurricane Harvey or Irma," says Anthony Cirillo, senior vice president and company spokesperson for Digital LifeCloud®.  "Everything from your medical records and insurance policies to tax returns and photos of your children – can be properly stored and accessed 24/7 anywhere in the world."

"Natural disasters are especially hard for older adults," Debby Bitticks, co-founder of Digital LifeCloud® points outs.  "Few, if any, have gone the extra step to create and discuss a plan with family members or plan for how to recharge essential medical devices or refill life-saving prescriptions.  And, unfortunately, doctors and hospitals only have the records on services they provide.  These silo systems, however good, don't provide the same capability of you owning and controlling your own records in Digital LifeCloud®. By pulling your vital records from everywhere they can then be immediately accessed for a complete picture of your health.  It is perfect for second opinions and any emergency."

Dorothy, "The Organizer" and face of A&E's Emmy-nominated hit TV series "Hoarders," advises to start small and keep the organizing sessions brief.  "For those overwhelmed by the thought of organizing documents, I emphasize its simplicity, as well as the gratitude you'll feel later when you can easily access these records from your mobile device," she says.

According to Lynn Benson, MSW, co-founder, keeping Digital LifeCloud® affordable and easy-to-use was the aim when they launched the service.  "The monthly fee for the service is roughly the cost of one Starbucks' latte and pastry.  This is the perfect system for the "Sandwich Generation" of people caring for parents, grandparents, children, and other loved ones."

Adds Cirillo, "the first 60 days are free AND you can have unlimited family members on one account, each with their separate organization system. Over 50 Apps, covering most aspects of your life, are included along with award-winning content and more than 200 pre-built forms.

Digital LifeCloud® is encrypted, using the same technology that banks and the government employ. Information is stored on a private, virtual server and is never shared. You control 100% of what goes into and out of the platform.

"We have noticed on social media, people urging others to take photos of their belongings before they evacuate the oncoming Hurricane Florence. That's a good first step. Putting it in an organized cloud system for easy retrieval is the vital second step," notes Cirillo.
