    FIRE EMERGENCY

    AND EVACUATION
    PLAN
    WHAT IS A FIRE DRILL?
    A fire drill is a process of practicing how an
    establishment/building would be evacuated in the event of a
    fire or other emergencies. The purpose of fire drills in
    buildings is to ensure that everyone knows how to exit at the
    fastest and safest way.
    THE CONDUCT OF FIRE DRILLS
    IN SCHOOL
    1. Alarm – Fire alarms are signaled.
    2. Response – Students will have to be alert for fire, and smoke.
    3. Evacuation – All school personnel and students evacuate,
    following pre-determined ways to the evacuation areas.
    4. Assembly – At the designated evacuation area, students are
    grouped accordingly.
    5. Head Count- When drill participants reached the
    designated evacuation area, teachers-in-charge must check
    the attendance of the class to make sure that everyone is
    counted in.
    6. Evaluation – Evaluation of the drill is conducted to
    identify problems during the drill and how to correct these
    problems.
    Emergency evacuation plans are crucial for efficient and safe
    evacuation, involving benchmarks based on regulations,
    simulations, and best practices. Proper planning utilizes
    multiple exits, contra-flow lanes, and special technologies for
    swift evacuation, considering individual needs. Building fire
    and emergency plans, guided by regulations like building
    codes, aim to minimize panic and facilitate self-evacuation. A
    comprehensive "all-hazards approach" allows plan reuse for
    various emergencies. Prevention is key, and emergency
    managers must identify and anticipate risks to mitigate
    potential losses for businesses.
    HOW TO CREATE A FIRE
    EVACUATION PLAN FOR
    YOUR HOUSEHOLD
    Plan for everyone - In planning a fire evacuation plan,
    one must consider the special needs of all persons
    concerned. Adults must assign someone to help the
    young children and the elderly.
    Find two ways out - Make sure that your house has two
    ways out. Household elders must ensure that all passages
    in going in and out of the house are free from
    obstructions. These passages must be known to all
    household members.
    Involve children in planning - Draw a map of the home
    and mark the entrance and exit routes. The drawn family
    escape plan must be explained well to the children.
    Children must be taught of the family’s meeting place
    outside of the house during fire emergency.

    Have a backup plan - There must be back up plan for


    the installed fire evacuation plan of the family. It must be
    explained that in cases where family members are
    trapped in the house
    Share with everyone - Explain your fire evacuation
    plan to all family members. It must also be known to
    your guests or visitors especially those who will stay
    overnight in your house.

    Practice regularly - Conduct regular family fire drills


    and review your fire evacuation plan as the need
    arises.
