A wildfire happens in unfavorable wind conditions.
Evacuate housing and leave water sources on (to slow the spread). If unable to leave, find a space that is preferably in water to go in. (wildfires are dangerous because of the extreme amount of heat, even 100 meters away its very hot)

Clear radio channels and turn off equipment. If smoke persists, attempt to release pressure from equipment and evacaute. (high pressure is confinement and dangerous)

You can not speak but, if 911 seems to be slow, there is other ways to alert community or people. You have a chance to self expell the item by falling on a chair into the under area of your rib. But you want to do this outside and do it repeatedly to draw attention while trying to solve the choking yourself.
I want to do something different with apartments, lets say fire
Evacuation of the building is needed, clear exits from the building and wait for response.
Extras to say, light switches create sparks and you should make sure they stay off. Near a dense cloud of gas, you should not attempt to create a spark.
