The Office of Environmental Health & Safety performs emergency evacuation drills regularly for all departments and clinics on campus.  The performance of faculty/staff in each department and clinic will be evaluated as outlined in their Emergency Evacuation Plan.  Departments and clinics will receive an evaluation memo outlining what was done well and what needs to be improved in the future.

Emergency Evacuation Plans must be completed by every department and clinic on campus and revised annually. Once the plan is complete, the department or clinic must train all faculty, staff, physicians, nurses, and volunteers so that everyone understands their role and responsibilities in an evacuation.

The  Emergency Evacuation Plan Template is in a Microsoft Word format and can be downloaded, saved to your hard drive, and modified as appropriate to your area.

This plan and training is required by OSHA, NC Fire Code, and various accreditation agencies. The evaluation memo will meet the requirements of a wide variety of accreditation agencies.
