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.

everyone's chances of surviving a fire.
