Emergency Evacuation Plans
The National Fire Protection Association recommends that you
establish an emergency evacuation plan to safeguard lives in the
eventofareorotheremergency.
Draw a Floor Plan of Your Home or Business
On a clean sheet of paper, draw the walls, windows, doors, and
stairs. Also draw any obstacles that a person may encounter while
exiting the building such as large furniture or appliances.
Develop Escape Routes
Determine at least two routes the occupants in each room can
take to safely escape. One route can be the most obvious such
as the door. Another can be through a window that can be easily
opened. If the window is high off the ground, an escape ladder
should be provided.
Draw arrows on the oor plan to show escape routes from each
room.
Decide Where to Meet
Prearrange a meeting place outside and away from where
emergency personnel are likely to be working. A neighbor’s house
or across the street in front of the house are good locations. Always
perform a head count to make sure all occupants safely exited.
NEVER ENTER A BURNING BUILDING. If the head count shows one
or more persons missing, give this information immediately to the
authorities. Never enter a building to look for someone.
Practice Your Escape Plans
Devising an escape plan is only the beginning. For the plan to be
effective everyone should practice escape routes from each room.
Early Detection
The best way to survive a re or other emergency is to get out
early. The installation of a re alarm system, with smoke and
carbon monoxide detectors in each room, can greatly decrease
your risk of loss or injury.
