How do I escape in the event of a fire in my home?
- Calm your head and call the police in time. When you find out that your home is on fire, keep a cool head and take immediate action that works. On the one hand, it is necessary to call 119 to call the police in time, and on the other hand, it is necessary to organize forces to extinguish the fire in the initial stage, and once the fire spreads and expands, the fire burning area should be evacuated as soon as possible.
- Evacuate the fire area in a timely manner. When a building is on fire, you should quickly evacuate the fire area along the stairs, if the stairs are blocked by fire and smoke, do not take the stairs, otherwise it is easy to be smoked or burned by the smoke. Look for rooms that are not burning, and close the doors to prevent fireworks from entering. If the fire is close to the room where you are sheltering, you should open the window or go to the balcony to call for help, and if possible, you can also use ropes and other objects to connect into a self-rescue rope, tie it firmly to the internally fixed load-bearing object, and climb along the rope to a safe place, at this time do not blindly jump off the building.
- Extinguish the flames on your body. If your clothes are burned, you should take them off as soon as possible, or you can roll on the ground or douse them with water. At this time, do not run with fire, as this will not only burn your body, but also easily spread fire.
- When you see smoke and no fire, do not open the doors and windows at will, this may be due to the lack of indoor air, the fire is smoldering, if you open the doors and windows, you can form air convection, promote the spread of the fire, even if it is necessary to open the doors and windows, do not open wide.
- Don't put too much emphasis on salvaging items. Don't waste time looking for valuables, especially when you run outside and then return to the fire because of the belongings inside.
- Wait for help when you can't escape the fire. When you don't have the conditions for self-rescue and can't escape for a while, you should find a way to call for help from the sidelines.
