Fire Safety

Fire Safety Target: I will be able to describe ways to prevent, put out, and respond in situations to fires To prevent/reduce the risk of unintentional injuries and deaths from fires, all homes should have smoke alarms, fire extinguishers, and carbon monoxide alarms installed Pg. 25

Smoke Alarm: An alarm that sounds when smoke is detected. Children and Smoke Alarms

Carbon Monoxide (CO): Odorless and colorless gas which reduces the ability of the blood to carry oxygen

CO is found in fumes produced any time you burn fuel in vehicles, stoves, lanterns, grills, fireplaces, gas ranges, or furnaces. 

Exposure to high levels of CO can kill you; so install a detector outside of bedrooms

How to put out Fires: 1. Small kitchen fires: turn off the heat source or put a lid on the pan that has flamed up.

2. Grease Fires: pour baking soda or salt onto the grease, but never use water or flour

3. Larger Fires: Use a Fire Extinguisher PASS: The steps for how to use a fire extinguisher. Pull the Pin Aim at the Base Squeeze Trigger Sweep from Side to Side

What to do if your Home is on Fire: 1. Create a Fire Escape Plan: a plan (set up in advance and practiced) to safely exit a building in a fire 2 different ways to escape from each room A meeting place outside the home Assign someone to assist infants, children, older adults, and those with limited mobility

2. Cover your mouth/ nose with cloth to filter the air. 3. Crawl out of the home to stay below the smoke. 4. Do not open doors that feel warm or hot, and open cool doors slowly. If a door is hot and cannot be opened, stuff cloths under the door to help smoke from entering; then call out of a window for help. 5. After you have escaped, meet at the designated meeting place and call 911 6. Do not go back into a burning building. – Tell fire officials if people or animals are still inside  Summary:
