What Special Considerations Should Be Taken for Children with Disabilities?
Children with disabilities may require additional assistance during a fire drill. Here are some considerations:
1. Individual Plans: Develop individualized evacuation plans for children with specific needs. 2. Assistive Devices: Ensure that necessary assistive devices, such as wheelchairs or communication aids, are easily accessible. 3. Staff Training: Train staff to assist children with disabilities during an evacuation. 4. Buddy System: Implement a buddy system where a staff member or another child is assigned to help during the drill.
