A - Get to know your emergency services; what number do you call ? Look at your house, and determine two or more ways out of every sleeping room. Then, map it out; draw a "footprint" diagram of your house by floor and illustrate the way out for each area. Determine a meeting place outside where everyone will gather and be counted. Be sure the meeting place is far enough away from the house to be out of danger, but not too far away for everyone to make it there quickly.

If a fire breaks out in your home, you have to get out fast. Prepare for a fire emergency by sitting down with your family and agreeing on an escape plan. Be sure that everyone knows at least two unobstructed exits--doors and windows--from every room. (If you live in an apartment building, do not include elevators in your escape plan.) Decide on a meeting place outside where everyone will meet after they escape. Have your entire household practice your escape plan at least twice a year.

The four basic steps in creating an escape plan for your home includes: drawing a floor-plan of your home; agreeing on a meeting place; practicing your escape plan; and making sure your exit drill is realistic.

a general rule, you should have two escape routes from each bedroom and each dwelling unit. The front door is usually the primary escape route, but an additional route should be available in case the primary route becomes impassable. Check to ensure each bedroom and living area has access to a secondary means of escape, for example an exterior window. Note: Secondary escape routes from individual units are particularly important in buildings not protected by a fire sprinkler system.

If you need to go to the hospital or emergency room, please make sure you or a family member shows your AIM-HIGH Participant Identification Card to the medical staff. This lets the medical staff know about your participation in the study, and will give the attending medical staff important information about your care. If you don’t have your AIM-HIGH Card with you, just let them know the name of your AIM-HIGH doctor and ask the medical staff to contact them.
