D. Beware of potential dangers after an earthquake such as escaping gas, unstable <br /> building structures, electrical hazards, etc. Also beware of aftershocks. <br /> Evacuation of the Disabled <br /> A. Persons with a disability (including a short-term disability) limiting them from <br /> safely moving to the assembly point will congregate in the lobby area where they <br /> will be assisted by either an Emergency Responder or law enforcement personnel. <br /> B. In the event an emergency renders the lobby unsafe or dangerous, an Emergency <br /> Responder will assist or carry the disabled person for pick-up and relocation. <br /> C. If assistance is not immediately available, disabled persons should stay in the exit <br /> corridor. An Emergency Responder will advise Security and Fire Department <br /> personnel of the location of the disabled person(s) in the event all other actions <br /> fail. <br /> A list of employees who will need assistance in the event of an emergency is included in <br /> Attachment D. <br /> Serious Injury <br /> Check the scene and the victim to determine the danger potential and the extent of the <br /> injury. Do not move a seriously injured victim unless there is an immediate danger such <br /> as fire, flood, or poisonous gas. If you must move the victim, do it as quickly and carefully <br /> as possible. If there is no immediate danger, do not move the victim and advise the <br /> bystanders the victim is not to be moved. <br /> A. Call 911 (9-911 if using an office phone) immediately if the victim is unconscious. <br /> Additionally, you should call for an ambulance if the victim has trouble breathing <br /> or is breathing in a strange way; has pressure or pain in the chest or abdomen; is <br /> bleeding severely; has slurred speech; appears to have been poisoned; has <br /> injuries to the head, neck, or back; or has possible broken bones. <br /> B. Keep the victim calm and as comfortable as possible. Administer CPR or First Aid if <br /> you have been trained in those areas (A list of these employees is included at the <br /> end of this document). A First Aid kit should be used, and precautions should be <br /> taken to minimize exposure to blood and other bodily fluids. Remain with the <br /> victim until emergency services personnel and Security arrive. <br /> Haggerty I Emergency Action <br /> Plan Page 8 of 19 <br /> 2022 HCI <br />
