Tiếng ViệtFires in high-rise buildings and apartments are one of the most dangerous risks that can happen at any time, especially for families with young children. We can’t always supervise and prevent these dangers. Therefore, teaching children escape skills in the event of a fire is extremely important.
In this article, let’s explore 9 escape skills for children in the event of a fire in a high-rise building or apartment. These skills can also be applied to all individuals.
- As soon as you enter a building, children should immediately look for escape routes for themselves. It’s best to find at least two exit routes.
2. In case of an emergency, never panic. Stay calm, observe, and find a way to escape for yourself and others.
3. Do not push or shove. If at school, listen to your teacher’s instructions.
4. Never use the elevator during an emergency.
5. If you see smoke, immediately find a piece of cloth or a towel, wet it, and place it over your nose and mouth to filter the smoke. If none is available, lift your shirt to cover your nose.
6. If smoke appears near the door, tightly close the door, stuff wet cloth into the gaps to prevent smoke from entering, and go to the window to call for help.
7. Do not attempt to fight the fire. Quickly find an escape route and evacuate. Once you’re in a safe place, immediately call the fire department (114) or responsible authorities for help.
8. If you notice smoke rising from the floor, tilt your head up toward the ceiling
