Home fires can be extremely scary and sometimes confusing. Fires aren’t planned but that doesn’t mean you can’t be! According to an online poll they estimate that 358,500 home fires occur in the United States every year. With those statistics it is definitely worth it to become prepared in case of an emergency. Here are a few tips and tricks you can do to get prepared.
According to the Red Cross you should:
- Install smoke alarmson every level of your home, inside bedrooms and outside sleeping areas.
- Test smoke alarms every month. If they’re not working, change the batteries.
- Talk with all family members about a fire escape planand practice the plan twice a year.
- If a fire occurs in your home, GET OUT, STAY OUT and CALL FOR HELP. Never go back inside for anything or anyone.
