High Rise Evacuation Training

Ask yourself these questions to assure a safe environment for your residents and staff:

• Do you have a fire evacuation plan in case of an emergency?
• Is your plan approved by North Collier Fire Prevention Bureau Team?
• Are these plans shared with employees and residents of your building on a regular basis?
• Can your building be evacuated without interfering with arriving firefighters?
• Are there areas of safe refuge in your building for a lateral evacuation?
• Are there options available for residents with disabilities such as stair chairs?
• If a fire starts, will it be detected properly? How?
• What are your procedures for contacting 9-1-1? Are instructions understood by staff?
• Is there a provision for heating, air conditioning, and smoke control in your building?
• Is there an emergency communications system in place? Overhead enunciator? Radios?
• Does the building have area or floor wardens trained in handling emergencies?
• Are fire extinguishers, emergency exit lights, fire pumps and emergency generators ready to use if needed?
• Are all exit doors clear and free from obstructions?
• Will security measures such as locking doors interfere with evacuating residents or arriving firefighters?
• Is the Pre-planning Office aware of your floor plans or changes to your building?
