Be Prepared 

 

Perform fire drills regularly. Use them to assure recognition of an alarm signal. For 
your protection, simulate different circumstances (smoke the hall, living room, etc.). 
Then have everyone react to the situation. Draw a floor plan and show two exists 
from each room. It is important that children be instructed carefully. Their tendency is 
to hide in a crisis. 
 
It is imperative that one meeting place outside the home be established. You should 
insist that everyone meet there during an alarm. This will eliminate the tragedy of 
someone re-entering the house for a missing member who is actually safe. 
 
If you have small children and/or invalids residing in your household, you can help 
your fire department by placing decals on bedroom windows. Most fire departments 
supply the decals. 
 
Become familiar with the distinctive sounds of your Fire alarm and Burglar alarm 
signals.
