What Home Safety Measures Do You Have? - Page 4
4. Do you practice safety in the kitchen?
- When you are cooking, make sure that you always turn the pan handles to the back, away from the edge of the stove.
- Always stay in the kitchen when the stove is on. It only takes a moment for an accident to happen.
- Never put hot drinks or food on a tablecloth were little ones can pull it down on themselves and be very careful when carrying hot liquids around small children.
- Use pot holders for carrying food, but be careful not to leave them near an open flame.
- Practicing safety measures in the kitchen can go a long way to preventing the over 500 million burns and scalds that occur every year in the United States.
