Know the signs of CO poisoning including headache, fatigue, shortness of breath, nausea, and dizziness. High levels of CO poisoning can cause mental confusion, vomiting, loss of coordination, loss of consciousness, and even death. #COPoisoning #COtheSilentKiller #BeSafe

Close Before You Doze. A closed door can slow the spread of fire, reduce toxic smoke levels, improve oxygen levels and decrease temperatures dramatically – and that could make a life-saving difference in your home. #FireSafetyTips #FirePrevention #CloseBeforeYouDoze

Fire is DEADLY! Smoke & toxic gases kill more people than flames. Fire uses up the oxygen you need & produces smoke & poisonous gases that kill. Breathing even small amounts of smoke & toxic gases can make you drowsy, disoriented & short of breath. #FireSafetyTips #FirePrevention

Fire is FAST! There is little time! In less than 30 seconds a small flame can get completely out of control and turn into a major fire. It only takes minutes for thick black smoke to fill a house. In minutes, a house can be engulfed in flames. #FireSafetyTips #FirePrevention

Each year there are approx 2,400 home fires involving people with disabilities. To ensure they can escape a home fire quickly, make sure they have glasses, hearing aids, canes, or their wheelchair close to their bed at night. #FireSafetyTip #BeSafe #PlanAroundYourDisabilities

#uwcnf Making a campfire this season? Follow these tips from Smokey Bear to prevent wildfires: Have a source of water, a bucket, and a shovel nearby at all times. Always keep the fire small and under control. Never leave your campfire unattended.

Thanks for the opportunity! Educating children and adults is the first step. We have to let them know what to look for, what to avoid, and that help is always available. We also have to be vigilant as a community, and communicate with each other in forums such as this #CAPM2023
National Center for Missing & Exploited Children@NCMEC

BONUS QUESTION: Thank you for participating today! Offenders are always finding new ways to sexually exploit children and share images and videos of abuse online with little fear of getting caught. How do we stay ahead of this? #CAPM23
