If you have a fire in your home, get out and stay out. Never try to re-enter a burning building. Smoke is deadly.

In your home escape plan, take into account the abilities of everyone in the home. Be sure to note if someone needs assistance waking up or getting outside. Decide who will help that person exit the home.

You should only have one meeting place in your escape plan. Choose a permanent location such as a tree, mailbox or neighbours house, where everyone can be accounted for. Assign one person to let firefighters know if everyone is out of the home.

All firefighters in Port Hope are volunteers. When there is an emergency, they respond to the fire station in their personal vehicles, with many using flashing green lights. Please pull over and let them pass. The quicker they get to the station the faster they can help.
