A NOTE FROM THE NURSE:
KIDS: BE SAFETY SMART ABOUT FIRES!
IF YOU FIND MATCHES OR LIGHTERS, TELL A GROWN UP…… NEVER PICK THEM UP OR LEAVE THEM FOR ANOTHER CHILD.
NEVER GO BACK INTO A BURNING BUILDING. WAIT AT YOUR MEETING PLACE OR GO TO A NEIGHBOR’S HOUSE TO CALL FOR HELP.
STOP, DROP, AND ROLL IF YOUR CLOTHES CATCH FIRE.. RUNNING WILL MAKE THE FLAMES WORSE.
FIREFIGHTERS ARE GOOD STRANGERS. NEVER HIDE IF THERE IS A FIRE. IT IS O.K. TO GO WITH A FIREFIGHTER IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY.
IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY, CALL 911.
ALWAYS KEEP THE EMERGENCY NUMBER AND YOUR ADDRESS POSTED ON THE PHONE.
NEVER CALL THE EMERGENCY NUMBER TO PLAY A JOKE OR TO CALL IN A FALSE ALAR.M.
