A Safe Home

You can't remove all the safety hazards from your life, but you can reduce them. You can avoid major hazards and prepare for emergencies by taking the following steps:

• Keep emergency phone numbers by your telephones.
• Make a first aid kit for your home.
• Make a family emergency plan.
• Install and maintain smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors
• Keep guns unloaded and locked up. Lock up the ammunition separately.
• Follow the directions carefully when using tools or equipment.

Young children are especially at risk. Supervision is the best way to keep them safe. Childproofing the house can also help.

Have a SAFE weekend!
