ALICE Evacuation Plans 2

Question 1

When evacuating a multi-story building during an ALICE event, which stairwell consideration is most important?

Accepted Answer

Choose stairwells that lead away from the threat

Answer

During evacuation, you should use stairwells that move you away from the known threat location rather than defaulting to the nearest exit.

Question 2

Which group of individuals requires special consideration when developing an ALICE evacuation plan?

Accepted Answer

Individuals with mobility impairments or disabilities

Answer

Evacuation plans must include provisions for individuals with disabilities or mobility impairments who may need assistance or alternative evacuation routes.

Question 3

What does 'rally point' mean in the context of an ALICE evacuation plan?

Accepted Answer

A pre-designated safe meeting location away from the building

Answer

A rally point is a pre-designated safe location outside and away from the building where evacuees gather after exiting.

Question 4

During an active threat evacuation, a person encounters a locked exterior door. What is the best ALICE-aligned action?

Accepted Answer

Quickly redirect to an alternate exit route

Answer

ALICE training emphasizes proactive movement, so redirecting to a pre-planned alternate exit is the preferred response when a primary exit is blocked.

Question 5

Why should evacuees avoid clustering near the building exterior immediately after exiting?

Accepted Answer

They could be in the threat's line of sight or path

Answer

Remaining near the building keeps evacuees potentially visible to or within range of an active threat, so moving to a distant rally point is essential.
