Creating and practicing a home fire escape plan is simple. Follow the steps below to make sure everyone in your home is prepared and knows what to do in case of a home fire.

• Make an Escape Plan:  Learn two ways out of every room in your home, in case one exit is blocked or dangerous to use. A second way out can include an escape ladder for rooms on an upper level.
• Children & Fire Safety:  It is important to have a plan when there are children in your home. Children may become very scared and need clear direction and help getting out of the house. They may not know how to escape or what to do unless an adult shows them.
• Conduct a Home Fire Drill:  Fires can start anywhere in the home and at any time, so run through the plan at different times of the day or night and practice different ways out.
