Draw a floorplan of your home or business
On a sheet of paper, draw the walls, windows, doors, and stairs. Also
draw any obstacles a person may encounter exiting the building.
Develop escape routes

escape. One route can be the most obvious such as the door. Another
can be through a window that can be easily opened.
Draw arrows on the floorplan to show escape routes from each room.
Decide where to meet
Prearrange a meeting place at a neighbor's house or across the street
in the front of the house. Always perform a head count to make sure all
occupantssafelyexited.NEVERENTERABURNINGBUILDING.Ifthe
head count shows a person missing, give this information immediately

effective everyone should practice the escape routes from each room.
