Practice emergency procedures

Reference no: EM133693116

Schools are required to have and practice emergency procedures. Educators must work collaboratively and proactively with relevant school personnel to develop solutions for addressing the unique challenges to planning, communicating, and ensuring student understanding of emergency procedures for students with moderate to severe disabilities.

Imagine you are the teacher for the students in the "Moderate to Severe Case Study." Review the case study so you are familiar with the unique needs of the students in the classroom (medical equipment, communication challenges, sensory and emotional sensitivities, etc.). Using the study materials and your research, develop emergency procedures that address five common types of emergencies including fire, lockdown, evacuation, medical emergency, and weather events relevant to your region (tornado, monsoon, etc.). The procedures should consist of a one-page visual related to each emergency situation. These one-page visuals would be posted in the classroom for students, support staff, service providers, substitutes, and parents/guardians to see and follow in the event of an emergency. Each visual should include relevant pictures along with simple, clearly written directions for executing the emergency procedure.

Summarize the collaboration needed to develop and execute emergency action plans in a classroom with students with moderate to severe disabilities.

In the summary, address the following:

The collaboration that is necessary to plan appropriate, effective emergency procedures for students with moderate to severe disabilities. Identify key stakeholders that should be included in the collaboration and the role of school administrators in ensuring appropriate personnel are available to enable safe access to all parts of the campus.

Potential barriers to the execution of emergency procedures for students with moderate to severe disabilities. Include discussion of potential solutions for overcoming barriers and ensuring that emergency procedures can be executed safely during planned drills and real-life events.
