MESSAGE CENTER FIRE SAFETY TIPS No one wants to believe that a catastrophic event like a fire can happen to them, but it unfortunately happens to many families every single year. You can define the difference between tragedy and safety as how you plan and prepare for such an event. These 5 fire safety steps you can take might be the difference between your safety and a tragic disaster. Communicate: When all members of your family know the best process for exiting the home in case of a fire, there is a much better chance of everyone making it out safely. Walk through TOM WEST your home and identify two ways out of each room. security director Establish Roles: It’s important to establish who in your family will tend to those who cannot make it out safely without assistance. Households of people with disabilities tend to be better 561-921-9999 prepared for such an emergency with 70% having a specific plan for evacuation, but most of these family members have less of an ability to identify another way out if one way is blocked or evacuate the home without the help of someone else. Ensuring that someone immediately goes to their assistance ensures that they all get out of the house safe and sound. Identify all Exits: Identify what exits should be taken in the event of an emergency. Everyone needs to know where to exit and an alternative exit. Consider any obstacles in the way such as bars on the windows or furniture that might block your chosen exits. If you live in a high-rise complex, know your exit plan and stay low. Never use the elevator. If you can’t get to the hallway because of smoke or fire, call your fire department and tell them your location. Close all doors around you and create a seal around the door with duct tape, towels, blankets, whatever is available to you Meeting Place: One of the most over looked fire safety tips is choosing a meeting place outside of your home where everyone should meet immediately after fleeing your home. Good places to start are on your front sidewalk or at a neighbor’s house. As long as you are as far away from the fire as possible. Practice: There’s a reason to follow the old saying “practice makes perfect.” The more you run through the fire drill, the better off you all will be if a fire emergency were to happen. If you haven’t already, make sure to test the batteries in your fire alarm regularly.
