      (hombre) La semana del 9 de octubre es la Semana Nacional de Prevención de Incendios. El 9 de octubre es el aniversario del gran incendio de Chicago de 1871. Esta fecha fue elegida por la Asosiación de Jefes de Bomberos de Norteamérica para que se recuerde el peligro del fuego y la importancia de la seguridad contra incendios. En 1925, presidente Coolidge, proclamó la primera Semana Nacional de Prevención de Incendios. Esta semana es una ocasión para que las familias revisen su plan de seguridad contra incendios. Los bomberos tienen equipos para apagar incendios, pero todos pueden ayudar a prevenir incendios en casa y salvar vidas. Se incentiva a las familias a planear vías de escape, probar sus detectores de humo y monóxido de carbono y tener extintores en sus casas. También es un momento para aprender sobre el uso adecuado del fuego, para la calefacción y la cocina. En la Semana Nacional de Prevención de Incendios los bomberos van a bibliotecas o escuelas para dar consejos sobre cómo prevenir y escapar de incendios. Les muestran equipos para combatir incendios o incluso, llevan un camión de bomberos a la escuela.
