Tuesday's Safety Tips

The key to staying safe is to prepare and to have an emergency plan in place.
Install smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors on every level of your home. Test the alarms every month and replace the batteries twice a year, at daylight savings time (March and November).
If you are a tenant, test your evacuation plan with your landlord and neighbours.
If you live in a highrise, know how to evacuate the building. Use stairs instead of the elevator.
Make sure everyone knows where the fire extinguishers are kept.
Prevent Fires:
Clean chimneys annually.
Keep flammable items at least one meter from heat sources, such as space heaters, fireplaces and the stove.
Never smoke in bed.
Never leave candles unattended.
Stay in the kitchen when using the stove top. If you have to leave the room, turn off the stove.
