Personal Emergency Evacuation Plans
A Personal Emergency Evacuation Plan (PEEP) is a tailored strategy designed to assist individuals, especially those with disabilities or special needs, in safely evacuating a building during an emergency. This plan outlines specific procedures, routes, and assistance required to ensure a quick and effective escape from potential hazards like fires or natural disasters.
PEEPs are typically created in collaboration with emergency services, building management, and the individual needing assistance. They include details such as designated meeting points, communication methods, and the roles of support personnel, ensuring that everyone involved understands their responsibilities during an emergency situation.
