Whether here at Jeanne Jugan Residence or at our own homes, Dan, our Director of Maintenance, is always teaching and sharing valuable information to keep everyone safe.
On a beautiful fall day, Dan offered multiple fire safety sessions, providing for everyone at the home – Residents, staff, volunteers and Sisters, hands on fire extinguisher training. We learned the differences between three types of fire extinguishers and had the opportunity to test the basic ABC extinguisher. We all have one at home but 99% of us never had the need to use it. Thank God.
New to everyone was a fire blanket, especially for small kitchen fires. This group all agreed that in addition to checking the status of their home fire extinguishers, we were also going to purchase a fire blanket for ourselves and our families.
