Centre City Family Escapes Fire Safely Due to Practicing Escape Plan?
7/18/2023 (Permalink)
Having and practicing a home fire escape plan can save lives. Our local Centre City/Uptown team responds to fire damage emergencies every year and we know that fire escape plans work.
The first step to developing a fire escape plan is to come up with a plan that works for everyone in the home. Here are some fire escape planning tips from the National Fire Protection Association to help you create an escape plan for your family:
- Make a home escape plan. Draw a map of your home showing all of the doors and windows. Discuss the plan with everyone in your home.
- Know at least two ways out of every room, if possible. Make sure all doors and windows leading outside open easily.
- Have a designated place (tree, mailbox, light pole) a safe distance away from the house where everyone should meet.
- Practice your home fire drill at night and during the day with everyone in your home, twice a year
- Practice using different ways out
- Teach children how to escape on their own in case you can’t help them
- Close doors behind you as you leave
