Evacuation  In the event of a building catching fire, the speed with which the information reaches all inmates assumes paramount importance.  Factors that need consideration are listed below-.  Fire detection must be rapid and reliable. This could be through human agency or electronic systems, such as smoke detectors or a combination of both (should one fail).  Warning of fire must be given without loss of time. This could be through voice, manual alarm or electronic alarm system.

Evacuation Cont.  All personnel must understand the warning. This is achieved through detailed briefing of all personnel initially and rehearsals at regular intervals.  Escape routes must be clear of obstruction at all times so that evacuation takes place smoothly and without panic. This can only be achieved through good house keeping, regular maintenance, proper disposal of unwanted /waste material and regular rehearsals.  The escape routes must also be unaffected by fire and smoke, as maximum casualties occur due to inhalation of smoke causing asphyxia. This can be facilitated by the correct selection of exit routes for our personnel so that they can move out rapidly into the open into the assembly area where they can breathe-in the fresh air.

First Aid

 The First Aid Team is to provide immediate first aid to the casualties and arrange for evacuation of serious casualties to hospitals. Advance location for move of casualties should be selected & this should be equipped with adequate first-aid facilities for treatment of shocks, bleeding, dressing of wounds, relief of pains, etc. It is, therefore, mandatory for the team to be familiar with First Aid.  NOTE: A First Aid Box may be located at each floor and its location must be known to all.
