Emergency Evacuation is high priority for ALL people. With the ever increasing likelihood of accidents, fires, flooding and terrorism emergency evacuation plans need to incorporate all levels of staff abilities.

How do you assist people of differing needs to ESCAPE?
Who is responsible for assisting staff in an emergency evacuation including visiting individuals?

universal ESCAPE consults throughout Australia strategically supporting organisations to plan for the emergency evacuation of ALL staff members, including the development of Personal Evacuation Plans (PEPs).

PEPs are customised documentations that provide a framework for the planning and provision of emergency evacuation of people with a disability.

The most important component to emergency evacuation is - to get everyone out safely.
