What Is a Casualty Evacuation?

Guide people to evacuate to a safe area. For example, in the event of a fire, guide people to evacuate to a place that is not threatened by the fire.

Safe evacuation

During the fire, there were smoke poisoning,

The evacuation of materials on the fire field should be organized in order to minimize losses and prevent the fire from spreading and expanding.

Evacuation of densely evacuated places

Theaters, gymnasiums, auditoriums, hospitals, schools, and shops are crowded with people. Once the fire catches up, inadequate evacuation will cause serious casualties. Therefore, the evacuation of personnel is a top priority. The number of safety exits in these places, the width of walkways, stairs and doors, and the distance to evacuation exits, must all meet fire design requirements. At the same time, preparations for safe evacuation in various situations should be made to meet the needs of safe evacuation in the event of a fire.

1. Develop a safe evacuation plan. According to the distribution of personnel, draw up a safe evacuation route in the event of a fire or other emergency, and draw up a plan view. The population and the evacuation route are marked with bold arrows. The route should be as simple as possible, and the utilization rate of safety exits should be average. Workers should be clearly divided, and training should be conducted in order to organize the flow of people in an orderly manner in the event of a fire.

2. During business hours, staff members should stick to their posts and ensure that safety walkways, stairs and exits are unobstructed. Safety exits must not be locked, and passageways must not be stockpiled. When organizing evacuation, publicity should be carried out to stabilize the emotions so that everyone can cooperate actively and evacuate the people present on the site as soon as possible.

3 Maintain good order during safe evacuation, take care not to crowd each other, support the elderly and the young, and help people with disabilities and people with disabilities to move away from the fire.

Safe evacuation of underground buildings

Underground buildings include underground hotels, shops, amusement parks, and material warehouses. When a fire occurs in these places, the smoke stream is very harmful to people, so people need to be evacuated in a shorter time. Underground buildings have a small space and limited evacuation facilities. When the fire catches on, the smoke quickly fills the space, the space temperature is high, the visibility is extremely poor, and people are easily disoriented in panic, etc. People can only evacuate through the entrance. The difficulty of safe evacuation is much greater than that of ground buildings, so the safe evacuation of such places needs to be strengthened.

1. There should be evacuation plans for the interval (the area between the two entrances). The plan should clearly indicate the area evacuation routes and the person responsible for each route. The plan is to be displayed in a floor plan.

2. Service managers must be familiar with the plan, especially to evacuate routes, and calmly guide the flow of people away from the fire in the event of an emergency.

3 The signboards, advertisements and decorations attached to both sides of the walkway in the underground building shall not protrude from the walkway.

4 In the event of a fire in an underground building, if a power outage occurs, the business unit shall immediately activate the accident lighting facilities or use lighting appliances such as flashlights and battery lights to guide evacuation.

5. The safety management personnel of the unit shall clean up the scene after the evacuation of personnel to prevent accidents such as poisoning or being burnt to death when people hide in panic.
