The Home Fire Evacuation DVD begins with a family doing a very realistic fire drill at night. Homeowners and other members of your community need to know that practicing an escape plan is critical to saving their lives in a real emergency. The video reviews basic instruction on creating a safe escape plan, including making a floor plan, marking 2 exits from every room, and properly installing smoke alarms. Tips are given for escaping multi-level homes, as well as apartment buildings. Viewers are advised on how to prevent children from panicking in an emergency. Escape techniques like feeling a door for heat, crawling low under smoke, and stop, drop, and roll, are demonstrated by all family members.
