DEVELOP AN ESCAPE PLAN
As part of your plan, all family members should know and/or practice:

2. How to exit from upstairs, for homes with a second story. A rope or chain may be required.
3. An agreed upon meeting place outside, such as the letterbox
4. The sound of the smoke alarm and practice leaving your home when they hear it.
5. A re drill at least every six months including drills at nights. Practice allows you to test your plan
before an emergency.You may not be able to reach your children. It is important that they know
what to do!
WHAT TO DO IF THE ALARM SOUNDS
1. Alert any small children and elderly persons.
2. Leave immediately by your plan of escape. Every second counts, so don’t waste time getting
dressed or picking up valuables.
3. In leaving, don’t open any inside door without rst feeling its surface. If hot, or if you see smoke
seeping through cracks, don’t open that door! Instead, use your alternate exit. If inside door is cool,
place your shoulder against it, open it slightly and be ready to slam it shut if heat and smoke
rush in.
4. Stay close to the oor if air is smoky. Breathe shallowly through a wet cloth if possible.
5. Once outside, go to your selected meeting place and make sure everyone is there.
