Include "information" and "skills" as high priorities.

Information in static tangible form (you might not be able to google for answers) and skills matched with needed tools & supplies.  

Looking over contingency plans might be useful.  What happens if health situation XYZ happens and there is no ready healthcare available?  What happens if situation ABC damages our local personal infrastructure?  What happens if a mob much bigger than our self-defense resources can handle shows up?

As nothing would be scripted or truely predictable, you are looking for broad-brush responses to include in contingency planning, and not overly detailed action plans.
