Fire? Get out quickly and safely.

If you smell smoke or see flames, get everyone out of the building immediately. Remember:

  • The air is clearer near the floor
  • Get down on your hands and knees and crawl to an exit
  • Close doors to slow the spread of smoke and flames
  • Agree on a meeting place, go there and “take attendance” to be sure that no one is left inside the building

Call the fire department!

  • Phone from outside the building and give the complete address
  • Don’t hang up until you’re told to do so
  • Be sure no one goes back inside for any reason
  • Tell the fire department if anyone is trapped inside the building

Things can be replaced – you can’t.
