Cartoon family review their fire escape plan hanging on the wall.

Every second counts during a fire.  In just a matter of moments, a small flame can turn into a major fire, making it critical to be prepared by having an escape plan in place.  A survey conducted by the American Red Cross shows only 26 percent of families have actually developed and practiced a home fire escape plan.  Once a plan is developed, it is important to ensure that everyone in the home understands the plan; the best way to do this is by practicing the escape plan at least twice a year.

The National Fire Protection Association offers great tips and free fire escape planning tools.

Remember to escape first, then notify the fire department.
