If Trapped

If trapped in a room

  • Remain calm.  Do not panic.
  • Contact the front office and notify them of the entrapment and room number.
  • If able to access water in the room, wet and place cloth material around or under the door to prevent smoke from entering the room.
  • Close as many doors as possible between you and the fire.
  • Be prepared to signal to someone outside, but Do Not Break Glass until absolutely necessary (outside smoke may be drawn into the room).
