  1. When a fire alarm activates in a building, what is the Fireguard's FIRST priority?

    Answer: Investigate the source of the alarm

    The Fireguard must first investigate the alarm to determine if a real emergency exists before initiating a full evacuation.

  2. A tenant reports smoke coming from a door that is hot to the touch. What should the Fireguard do?

    Answer: Call 911, do not open the door, and evacuate the floor

    A hot door indicates fire on the other side; opening it can cause a backdraft, so call 911 and evacuate without opening the door.

  3. Which method is used to communicate the location of a fire to arriving FDNY units?

    Answer: Meet them at the building entrance and provide exact floor and unit information

    The Fireguard should meet FDNY at the entrance, direct them to the fire location, and provide key building information such as floor and apartment number.

  4. During an emergency evacuation, an occupant with a mobility impairment cannot use the stairs. What should the Fireguard do?

    Answer: Direct them to the nearest Area of Rescue Assistance and notify FDNY

    Persons with mobility impairments should be directed to Areas of Rescue Assistance where firefighters can assist them; elevators must not be used during fires.

  5. How should a Fireguard document an emergency event that occurred during their watch?

    Answer: Record all details in the Fire/Emergency Drill Log immediately after the event

    All emergency events must be recorded in the official Fire/Emergency Drill Log as soon as possible while details are fresh.

  6. What is the correct action when a sprinkler head activates accidentally with no fire present?

    Answer: Locate and close the sprinkler control valve and notify building management and FDNY

    An accidental activation should be stopped by closing the appropriate control valve, then building management and FDNY must be notified.

  7. During an emergency, which floor should be evacuated FIRST if fire is detected on the 5th floor?

    Answer: The fire floor and the floors immediately above and below it

    Standard fire evacuation protocol prioritizes the fire floor and adjacent floors above and below due to the greatest immediate danger.
