Family Plan
Include the entire family in your preparations so they all know the plan.

• Determine two ways of escape. The windows in the trailer are removable and are large enough for most people to go through. And make sure windows are accessible and can be opened in the event you must exit through them in a fire.
  
  
• Discuss and agree on what to do with a pet if fire breaks out.
  
  
• Designate a place outside where all family members can meet after escaping a fire.
  
  
• If a fire breaks out in your trailer, keep your head away from the ceiling where the heat is worst. Stay low and get out as quick as you can.
  
  
• If possible, close the door when you leave to help cut off the oxygen to the fire.
  
  
• Make sure part of your plan includes taking care of people who may need special help.
  
  
• Locate the nearest place where you can call 911 and assume that your cell phone won't be available for the call.
  
  
• Exercise the evacuation plan with the whole family including taking the pets. FEMA Trailer Helpline:888-294-2822.
