The R.A.C.E.method for responding to a fire emergency:\n\nR-Rescue  \nMove patients and assist visitors or impaired employees away from immediate danger of fireor smoke IF YOU CAN DO THIS WITHOUT PUTTING YOURSELF IN IMMEDIATEDANGER and IF THERE ARE OTHER STAFF AVAILABLE TO COMMUNICATE THEEMERGENCY AND TURN IN THE ALARM.  \nA-Alert others  \nActivate manual pull station alarm as soon as possible.Call\\#6688 and state the location,type of fire and size.Notify co-workers-and make sure everybody in the area,and in otherdepartments in your area,know as well.  \nC-Confine  \nClose all doors and windows.Pack sheets and towels under doors to contain smoke.If there is oxygen in the area:  \n·Oxygen to a patient can be shut off by a nurse at the bedside after other staff have the patientand are ventilating them.  \n·Oxygen to a zone(a whole unit)can ONLY be shut off by Maintenance and Engineering afternursing staff authorize it(patients on oxygen are cared for).  \n·Oxygen to the building is only shut offafter the Fire Marshal orders it and after nursing staffauthorize it(patients on oxygen are cared for).  \nE-Extinguish  \nSelect the appropriate fire extinguisher.Use the P-A-S-S technique to extinguisher the fire.  \n(see below for P-A-S-S technique)  \nE-Evacuate  \nMove people (patients,parents,visitors,staff)to next lateral fire compartment on the 1st,and4th through 8th floors.On 2E and 3E and 2W and 3W,move 2 compartments laterally.  \nStay in the evacuation area until ordered to move by the Fire Marshal.  \nStaff on floors above the fire use fire stairwells to evacuate.  \nStaff on the 3rd floor use stairwells to evacuate patients to the 2nd floor if ordered to do so.Patients are evacuated from the building by the 2nd floor crosswalk.  \nClose doors behind you.  \nIf you are not at the scene of the fire,make sure you can hear overhead instructions and the'all clear'.Have someone posted in the hallway to relay this information.  \nLISTEN for the \"Dr.Red,All Clear\"announcement or further instructions.  \n\n| Pull the pin.  \u003Cbr>Aim the hose  \u003Cbr>Squeeze  \u003Cbr>the handle  \u003Cbr>Sweep the extinguisher back and forth.

button.  \n## Aim low\n\nAim low and direct the hose nozzle or cone at the base of the fire.If you aim at the flames,which most inexperienced users aretempted to do,the extinguishing agent will flow right through theflames,and be ineffective.You want the extinguishing agent tohit the base of the fire.Follow the manufacturer's instructions onthe safe distance from which to fight the fire.Most portable fireextinguishers must be used from a distance of 1.8 to 3 meters(6to 10 feet)to be effective.  \n## Squeeze the lever\n\nSqueeze the lever above the handle to discharge the extinguishingagent.Releasing the lever will stop the discharge.Some modelsmay have a button instead of a lever.  \n## Sweep the nozzle\n\nSweep the nozzle or hose from side to side at the base of the fire.Moving carefully toward the fire,keep the extinguisher aimed atthe base of the fire and sweep back and forth until the flamesappear to be out.Never turn your back on a fire;watch the firearea in case the fire re-ignites,and repeat use of the extinguisherif necessary.  \nAlways have the fire department inspect the fire site,even if you're sure you've extinguished thefire.The fire department will check to ensure there has not been any spread of fire beyond theoriginal ignition site.  \n# Fire Extinguisher Labels\n\nThe older labeling system uses simple iconswith an A,B or C designation to show whichclass or classes of fire it is safe to use a given  \nextinguisher to fight.The class system and the types of fires associated with each class isdescribed in Fire
