It only takes a few seconds for a lifetime of memories to go up in flames. As we grow older, our risk of dying in a home fire goes up dramatically. If you are 50 or older, please pay special attention to fire safety. For your well-being and others you love.
- Don't smoke when you're sleepy - and really put that cigarette out.
- Keep heaters at least 3 feet from your bed, curtains, or other flammable materials.
- Never wear loose clothing when you're cooking.
- Test your smoke alarms monthly; change the batteries at least once a year.
- Develop and practice a fire escape plan.
- Install home fire sprinklers (if at all possible).
