Fire and Life Safety in your apartment.. What to do if there's a fire.......
|
- Get out of the apartment
- Once out-STAY OUT! Do not go back in for any reason
- Call 9-1-1 from a safe location
- Give the dispatcher as much accurate information as you can
- Use your fire escape plan. Go to the designated family meeting place
- Try to let neighbors know to get out. Help elderly neighbors and children to get out
- Have someone meet the fire trucks when they arrive, if it can be done safely
- Keep the fire lanes open
- If you can't get out, use a mobile phone to stay in touch with the 9-1-1 dispatchers. Shine a flashlight or wave a towel at the window to alert firefighters that you are trapped
- Stay calm
