Older adults often face extra challenges when it comes to escaping a fire.
Mobility, hearing, or vision issues can make every second harder.
Is your home ready? Remember alarms, exits, plan, and practice.
- • Alarms – Are your smoke alarms working? Do you need bed shakers or strobe lights if hearing is a challenge?
- • Exits – Are hallways and doors clear for walkers, wheelchairs, or canes?
- • Plan – Is there a safe bedroom on the ground floor or close to an exit?
- • Practice – Have you gone over the escape plan with family or neighbors who can help?
Watch our new PSA and share it with loved ones. Because fire safety has no age limit.
