Practice EDITH - Exit Drills in the Home
Design an escape plan for your family. Make special provisions for infants, elderly and handicapped persons. Have two ways out of
every room in case flames or smoke block one way. Establish a place outside where everyone will gather. Don't go back into a building that is on fire. Practice an escape plan with an Exit Drill in the Home (EDITH). In an apartment building, use only the stairs as a fire exit, never an elevator.
