WHAT TO DO AFTER A FIRE​

Caring for Yourself & Loved Ones

​​Pay attention to how you and your loved ones are experiencing and handling stress. Promote emotional recovery by following these tips. Discard any food that has been exposed to heat, smoke or soot.

Watch pets closely and keep them under your direct control.

Help people who require additional assistance- infants, elderly people, those without transportation, large families who may need additional help in an emergency situation, people with disabilities, and the people who care for them.
