Tips For Fire Safety Install smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors on every level of your home, inside bedrooms, and outside sleeping areas.  Test smoke alarms every month. If they’re not working, change the batteries. Talk with all family members about a fire escape plan and practice the plan twice a year, especially with young kids. Make sure that kids are familliar with what firefighters look like. In an emergency kids will often run and hide from firefighters. If a fire occurs in your home, GET OUT, STAY OUT and CALL 911 FOR HELP. Never go back inside for anything or anyone.
