The Public Works Department has issued its updated list of public hurricane shelters and emergency medical centres for 2007.
Hurricane shelters are provided in each district.
They are for persons whose homes are not hurricane resistant or who live in a location which is considered to be especially at risk in a particular storm and who do not have an alternate safe shelter.
Emergency medical centres provide shelter for chronically ill persons, the elderly and women in the last three months of pregnancy.
Medical personnel and equipment are provided at EMCs.
Grand Cayman will start the 2007 season with 4,010 hurricane shelter spaces, and the Sisters Islands with 810.
