HOTEL SAFETY

What to do in the event of a fire or other evacuation-based hotel emergency
-
Count the number of doors from your room to the emergency exit, so you know the distance to an exit in an emergency
where there is smoke or no light -
Look for a fire sprinkler system in the hotel...if there is not one, stay on a lower floor for a quicker evacuation in a crisis
-
If the fire alarm goes off, evacuate immediately
-
Never take the elevator in an emergency evacuation, always use the stairs
-
If you encounter smoke, get low...most fire fatalities occur due to smoke inhilation
-
Time is of the essence in an evacuation
-
NEVER assume it is a false alarm, always evacuate immediately
