Escape with the Miller Family
 
Setting up the escape ladder   Putting the escape ladder in the bedroom window
Jimmy and his dad learn how to set up their escape ladder.   If the route out of Jimmy's bedroom is blocked by smoke and fire, he could use the escape ladder from his bedroom window.
 
Grown-ups help practice using escape ladder   Everyone goes to the meeting place
If you practice using an escape ladder, have a grown-up help you, and practice from a first-story window only.   The Millers head outside to their family meeting place. It's Mr. Miller's job to bring the family's cellular phone so that they can call 911 when the family has safely exited the house. Remember: Never go back into a burning building!
 
Displaying the home escape plan   Success!
Jimmy and Sean Miller proudly display their escape plan in their kitchen, where they will always see it and be reminded of how to safely escape from their home in case of fire.The Millers will practice their escape plan twice a year.
