Fire Safety Home Assessments can help identify potential fire safety hazards, help residents check their smoke/fire/carbon monoxide detectors and fire extinguishers, make sure exit routes are unobstructed, discuss having a family escape plan and safe meeting area outside, discuss Knox Home Boxes, provide information on medic alert tags and smart medic alert health ID's, and talk about the importance of having medical information and a current prescription list on the refrigerator for first responders.
Knox Home Boxes
Knox Home Boxes
If you are a senior citizen, have a parent or loved one living alone, have a medical alert alarm, a serious medical condition or mobility issue, are a seasonal resident, or have a fire or smoke alarm system, having a Knox Box on your house allows the fire department quick, non-destructive access in an emergency.
It also reduces the expense and likelihood of having to call a board up crew or contractor to repair a damaged door or window.
Who needs the protection of a Medic Alert ID or Bracelet?
If you or a loved one manage one or more chronic medical conditions
Live with life-threatening allergies or asthma
Care for a loved one with Alzheimer’s, dementia, or autism
Use a mobility aid or have an implanted medical device
Lead an active lifestyle and want 24/7 protection
