Practicing EDITH- practice drills in the home, is a good way to know all of your exits. Know
where the windows are leading, where you can get out of, other alternative exits that you
can go if the fire’s right outside your doorway of your bedroom. Practice on your
meeting place for the family to meet in the event of a fire. That way, everybody meets
at a neighbor’s mailbox and you have everybody accounted for, so when the firefighters show
up and we talk with you, you know everybody’s out of the house and they can concentrate
on the fire itself.
