What Should Nursing Staff Do in Case of a Fire?

1. Raise the Alarm: Immediately activate the nearest fire alarm to alert everyone in the facility.
2. Evacuate Patients: Follow the established evacuation plan, prioritizing the safety of patients who are less mobile or require more assistance.
3. Use Fire Extinguishers: If the fire is small and manageable, appropriately trained staff can use fire extinguishers to control it.
4. Close Doors: To prevent the spread of smoke and fire, close doors behind you as you evacuate.
5. Follow Emergency Protocols: Adhere to the facility's emergency response plan, coordinating with emergency services as necessary.
