A young firefighter told how to behave in a fire and what actions can cost lives
There was a fire! What do I do? First, don't panic. She's your worst enemy. Second, remember that safe behavior in a fire is guaranteed to save your life. And exactly how to behave and what actions to take, the editorial board "Site" I will tell you in today’s article. These are the basic things that are important to know and remember.
Safe behavior in case of fire depends on where you are: at home or on the street. If trouble catches you in the apartment, your first task is leave. Remember that smoke is always more dangerous than fire. The fire may be small, but the smoke will be enough to poison.
Don’t waste a minute and leave the apartment. Ideally, you should soak any fabric with water and apply this thing to your nose and mouth, running away from the room. If the room is heavily smoked, move crawling. Don’t go home, even if you have forgotten something valuable.
On the way out, tell everyone you meet about the fire. There may be a staircase in fire or smoke. In that case, try to get on the roof and wait for firefighters there. If it is already impossible to leave the apartment, escape by closing the door on the balcony tightly. From there, you can call for help more effectively.
If the fire caught you by surprise and it is impossible to leave the apartment, close the door of the room in which you are. If possible, plug all the door slots with wet cloth, and the door itself is curled with something dense, such as a blanket. It's best wet too. Then open the window and call for help.
The fire in a small room will only intensify if you open the doors and windows. This is absolutely not worth doing. If you run out of a building, make sure to check every door before you open it. It can be hot, which means it’s dangerous in the next room.
When you leave the room, close every door. Whatever happens, do not use the elevator. In a fire, it’s a trap you can’t get out of.
If a building is on fire and you are on the street and want to help people, you also need to be prepared. The nose and mouth must be covered with a wet cloth, and covered yourself with a blanket or some outer clothing. When approaching the house, bend as low as possible to the ground.
However, it is not worth climbing on the horn either. You must be confident in your abilities and abilities, so that, on the contrary, you do not harm. One way or another in the first place You should call rescue.. Emergency service numbers: 101 in Ukraine, 101 or 112 in Russia, 101 in Belarus.
If you are running from a burning building with a child, it is best to take him in your arms. Children can also be led by holding their shoulders. Your task is to cover the child in case of possible danger. Don't forget the wet cloth. Only it first needs to wrap your nose and mouth, and then the child. This is done in such a sequence that the adult did not lose consciousness first. Without it, the children will not be saved.
If you find yourself in the epicenter of a fire in a business or shopping center, office space, it is important to focus on fire exits. If possible, read the evacuation plan and follow it clearly. Try to remember the route you are taking.
Remember that you cannot use the elevator. If you left your car in the parking lot, you shouldn’t drive it either. This can create a traffic jam that puts fire trucks closer to the building.
It happens that a person is able to extinguish a fire on their own. This is possible if the fire is still very low. Save the fire extinguisher, ordinary water and even land from a flower pot. However, in this case, you should clearly understand whether you can eliminate the focus of the fire effectively without risking your own life.
Remember when I said the worst enemy in a fire was panic? This is especially true when people light up their clothes. Unfortunately, many begin to run, the more they aggravate the buildup of the flames. And here, on the contrary, you need to stop, then lie down and start rolling on the floor. The fire will subside mechanically. Also, a burning person can be covered with a dense thing, such as a blanket. And we should not forget about water either. If you have it on hand, this is a great solution to the problem.
Preparing for a fire is morally impossible. However, it is in your power to remember the safety rules. The house should not clutter the exits from the apartment and balcony. At work, it is important to study the evacuation plan and know where the emergency exits are. It is also important to tell your children about safe behavior in case of fire.
We sincerely hope that you will never face such a problem as a fire. Take care!
