Fire Safety Tips
How should you prepare in case of a fire in your home or
business?
• Remind everyone to escape first, and then call for
help.
• Develop a fire escape plan and designate a meeting
place outside.
• Practice the escape plan frequently.
• Plan two ways to escape from every room, if possible.
• Practice feeling the way out with eyes closed.
• Instruct everyone never to stand up during a fire,
always crawl under the smoke and keep mouths
covered.
• Instruct everyone never to return to a burning
building for any reason; it may cost them their life.
• Check smoke alarms regularly. Working smoke alarms
dramatically increase everyone's chances of surviving
a fire.
