What to do if there's
a Fire
• Get Out!
• 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.
