Getting kids ready to head off to college means sharing fire prevention safety tips with them to keep them safe. Unfortunately, there are far too many fires that involve college students these days, even in supervised student housing. Fire safety experts at US Alarm caution parents to prepare their child to be away from home. Fire is a very real danger in student housing and can strike at any time.
As a parent you should not be hesitant to speak with the resident assistant or housing office to see what type of safety measures are in place, and to review escape plans with them. This is information you can pass along to your child. Don't forget to check that your child's housing is equipped with smoke detectors that work, and a carbon monoxide detector if cooking appliances are present.
Remember, without a working smoke alarm installed in their student housing, which you can get from US Alarm, your child will have no advanced warning should a fire break out. Send them prepared and they'll come back safely each time.
