In
the event of a fire, remember time is the
biggest enemy and every second counts!
Escape first, then call for help.
Develop a home fire escape plan and designate a meeting place outside.
Make sure everyone in the family knows two ways to escape from every room.
Practice feeling your way out with your eyes closed.
Never stand up in a fire, always crawl low under the smoke and try to keep your mouth covered.
Never return to a burning building for any reason; it may cost you your life.
Finally, having a working smoke alarm dramatically increases your chances of surviving a fire. And remember to practice a home escape plan frequently with your family. |
