Proposed Project

    Evaluation of the Effectiveness of the Smoke Alarm Installation and 
Fire Safety Education (SAIFE) Program--New--National Center for Injury 
Prevention and Control (NCIPC), Centers for Disease Control and 
Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    This project will use data from in-person interviews, paper and 
telephone surveys to assess the effectiveness of the Smoke Alarm 
Installation and Fire Safety Education (SAIFE) program and its efficacy 
in delivering fire safety information. The data will be collected from 
a convenience sample of adults 18 years of age or older who volunteer 
to participate in the SAIFE program. A total of 360 households will 
complete the evaluation each year of the data collection for a mass 
total of 1080 households over the next three years. Participants will 
be asked to complete a 15-minute survey at two points, once immediately 
before the intervention and then 6 months afterwards. The survey will 
assess outcome measures including, but not limited to, changes in 
knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors regarding various aspects 
of fire safety and prevention; changes in reported residential fire-
related injuries and deaths; increased or decreased presence of 
functioning smoke alarms; and the costs associated with the SAIFE 
intervention. The evaluation will measure these changes across time, 
between groups and within groups, among communities that will receive 
the SAIFE intervention.
    CDC programs are currently funded in 16 states to provide for home 
installation of smoke alarms plus general fire safety education in 
households at high risk for fire and fire-related injury and death. 
Programs of this type are intended to prevent fire-related injury and 
mortality, but have not been studied scientifically to assess their 
impact on fire-related injury outcomes. The proposed study represents 
the first formal effort to evaluate the effectiveness and cost 
implications of the SAIFE program as implemented in North Carolina. The 
data collected in this study will have the potential to inform other 
smoke alarm installation programs, as well as indicate future 
priorities in prevention and preparedness for residential household 
fires. The only cost to the participant is the time involved to 
complete the surveys.
