Based on NFPA 1600, all-new NFPA 1616: Standard on Mass Evacuation, Sheltering, and Re-entry Programs provides requirements and resources for disaster planning and preparedness.
Essential for shelter managers, emergency managers, and other community officials charged with developing and implementing emergency management plans, NFPA 1616: Standard on Mass Evacuation, Sheltering, and Re-entry Programs establishes a common set of criteria for the process of organizing, planning, implementing, and evaluating a program for mass evacuation, sheltering, and re-entry. The program is scalable to meet the needs of evacuation sheltering and re-entry.
Written in a Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) format to aid in continuous improvement of the plan, NFPA 1616 includes separate chapters on:
- Mass evacuation, sheltering, and re-entry program management
- Planning
- Implementation
- Training and education
- Exercises
- Program maintenance and improvement
Annexes address issues central to preparedness, making this first-edition Standard a rich resource.
Informative annexes in NFPA 1616 address issues of concern for officials and communities, including risk management; analyses for mass evacuation, sheltering, and re-entry requirements; issues to consider to protect people with disabilities and other access and functional needs; mandatory evacuation; emergency communications; social media support; and more.
