🧯 Know the PASS Method—Be Ready Before a Fire Happens 🧯

A portable fire extinguisher can help stop a small, contained fire before it spreads—but only if you know how to use it safely.

The Liberty Fire Department encourages everyone to remember the PASS method:

🅿️ P – Pull the pin to unlock the extinguisher.
🎯 A – Aim the nozzle at the base of the fire, not the flames.
💨 S – Squeeze the handle to release the extinguishing agent.
↔️ S – Sweep the nozzle from side to side at the base of the fire until it is completely out.

⚠️ Safety Reminders:
• Only use a fire extinguisher on small, contained fires if you have a clear escape route behind you.
• If the fire is growing rapidly, producing heavy smoke, or you are unsure how to use the extinguisher, evacuate immediately.
• Never turn your back on a fire after using an extinguisher. If it begins to grow again, leave the area.

📞 Always call 9-1-1, even if you believe the fire has been extinguished. Hidden hot spots can reignite, and firefighters can ensure the fire is completely out and your home is safe.
Being prepared before an emergency happens can protect your family, your home, and your community.

Stay prepared. Stay safe.

🔥 HEAT WAVE SAFETY — STAY COOL, STAY HYDRATED, STAY SAFE 🔥

The Liberty Fire Department reminds everyone to take extreme heat seriously. High temperatures combined with humidity can create dangerous heat conditions and increase the risk of heat exhaustion and heat stroke.

☀️ During a heat wave:
• Drink plenty of water throughout the day, even if you don't feel thirsty.
• Limit strenuous outdoor activities and schedule them for the coolest part of the day.
• Wear lightweight, loose-fitting, light-colored clothing.
• Spend time in air-conditioned buildings when possible.
• Never leave children, older adults, pets, or anyone else unattended in a parked vehicle — even for a few minutes.
• Check on family members, friends, neighbors, and those who may be especially vulnerable to extreme heat.
• Keep pets indoors or provide plenty of shade and fresh water.
• Never take salt tablets unless specifically recommended by a physician.

🚨 Know the warning signs:
Heat exhaustion can include heavy sweating, weakness, dizziness, nausea, headache, and muscle cramps. Move the person to a cool location, provide water if they are fully conscious, and help cool them with wet cloths or a cool shower.

Heat stroke is a medical emergency. Signs can include confusion, loss of consciousness, very high body temperature, and hot, red skin. Call 9-1-1 immediately and take steps to cool the person while waiting for emergency responders.

🚒 Fire Won't Wait—Plan Your Escape Before It Happens 🚒

A house fire can become life-threatening in as little as two minutes. Having a home fire escape plan—and practicing it with your family—can make all the difference when every second counts.

The Liberty Fire Department encourages every household to take a few minutes to create and practice a fire escape plan.

Your fire escape plan should include:
🏠 Two ways out of every room, if possible.
🚪 A clear, unobstructed path to every exit.
📍 A designated outdoor meeting place a safe distance from your home, such as a mailbox, tree, or neighbor's driveway.
🚫 A reminder to never go back inside a burning building for people, pets, or belongings.
☎️ A plan to call 9-1-1 only after everyone is safely outside.

Don't forget to practice!
✔️ Hold a home fire drill at least twice a year.
✔️ Practice both daytime and nighttime escape scenarios.
✔️ Make sure children know what smoke alarms sound like and what to do when they hear one.
✔️ Test your smoke alarms monthly and replace batteries as needed (or according to the manufacturer's recommendations).

Remember:
🔥 If you encounter smoke, stay low and crawl beneath it.
🚪 Before opening a door, feel it with the back of your hand. If it's hot, use another exit if possible.
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Once you're safely outside, stay outside and meet at your designated meeting place.

Planning ahead gives your family the best chance of escaping safely during a fire emergency. Take the time today to create and practice your fire escape plan—because when a fire happens, there won't be time to make one.

Stay prepared. Stay safe.

❤️ Learn CPR. Save a Life. ❤️
Did you know that immediate CPR can double or even triple a person's chance of survival after cardiac arrest? When performed quickly, CPR helps keep oxygen-rich blood flowing to the brain and vital organs until advanced medical care arrives. In an emergency, knowing what to do can make all the difference.

The Liberty Fire Department is proud to offer a CPR Class on the third Saturday of every month to help our community gain this lifesaving skill.

📅 Next Class: Saturday, August 15, 2026
🕘 Time: 9:00 AM (0900)
📍 Location: Liberty Fire Department – Station 21
1912 Lakeland
Liberty, TX

Whether you're a parent, grandparent, coach, teacher, caregiver, or simply want to be prepared, this class is a valuable opportunity to learn how to respond confidently during a cardiac emergency.

For questions or additional information, please contact the Liberty Fire Department at 936-336-3922.

Together, we can build a safer, better-prepared community—because you never know when the life you save could be someone you love. ❤️🚒
