Clark County highlighted Fire Prevention Month by reminding citizens that "Fire Won't Wait," which was the motto used to spark awareness.
According to a news release shared by the county government, Clark County dedicated last week, from Oct. 9 to Oct. 15, to offer the public tips on what to do in the event of a fire.
“Fire Prevention Month is a good time of year to remind people of important safety information that can protect your family and save lives,” Clark County Fire Chief John Steinbeck said in the release.
Families should formulate an escape plan that is known by all individuals living in a home including planning for two exits for each room
According to Steinbeck: “Every home should have working smoke detectors and every family should develop a household fire escape plan and practice it on a regular basis.”
If your family is ever involved in a fire, designate a meeting place close to your home where everyone can meet such as a light post. Practicing for the event of a fire twice a year is a great way to stay prepared
According to Steinbeck: “Every home should have working smoke detectors, and every family should develop a household fire escape plan and practice it on a regular basis.”
