Parents should be aware of the risks of concussion, understand what a concussion is, and what to do for their children if they ve been involved in a potentially concussive event. Most mild TBIs can be treated by your primary care physician. However, when needing future medical attention, your provider may refer you to Fort Campbell s Intrepid Spirit.

16 Fort Campbell Fire & Emergency Services Wendy Leo

17 Escape Planning Plan Ahead! If a fire breaks out in your home, you may have only a few minutes to get out safely once the smoke alarm sounds. Everyone needs to know what to do and where to go if there is a fire. 17

18 E.D.I.T.H Exit Drills In The Home Make a home escape plan. Know at least two ways out of every room. Have an outside meeting place (tree, light pole or mailbox) a safe distance from the home where everyone should meet. Practice your home fire drill twice a year. Teach children how to escape on their own in case you can t help them. Close doors behind you as you leave. 18
