Fires can happen anytime and anywhere due to many factors. Fires can occur while we are doing day-to-day activities. Fires can occur while we are cooking or through other accidental means.  It is simple to create a plan and teach drills to people of all ages to become prepared for a fire. It is crucial during a fire that you know what to do, how to safely remove you and your family from the fire, and who to call when there is a fire.

Important questions:

–       Do you have a fire extinguisher?

–       Are your smoke detectors up-to-date and functioning

–       Do you have multiple escape routes from your house?

You can learn more about these actions in the Get Prepared! section on our website.
