How Can Stair Evacuation Chair Overpower Safety Gadgets?

Ensuring safety at both residential and commercial places has now become precedence. The cause of concern is principally for the ones who lack mobility. On the other hand, a normal person can easily find a way out of uncertainties or unexpected situations by moving down through stairs quickly. Stairs are the only rescue options in times of need, which, in a way, restricts movements of individuals with less mobility. Also, covering the areas with top-notch gadgets like camera, alarms are not going to help Mobility challenged individual(s) to escape the scenario; instead, one needs to place Stairs Evacuation Chair for better safety concern.

The Need for Evacuation Chairs in Buildings: Ensuring Equal Evacuation Safety for Disabled and Vulnerable People

In the event of an emergency, such as a fire or earthquake, it’s crucial for all individuals to have a safe and efficient means of evacuation. However, for disabled and vulnerable individuals, traditional evacuation methods may not be feasible or safe. This is where evacuation chairs come into play, as they provide a crucial means of escape for those who may have difficulty using stairs or other standard evacuation routes. In this article, we will explore the need for evacuation chairs in buildings and why ensuring equal evacuation safety for all individuals, regardless of their physical abilities, is a basic human right.

The reality is that many buildings are not adequately equipped to ensure the safe evacuation of all individuals in the event of an emergency. While buildings are often designed with fire escapes and emergency exits, these routes are not always accessible to those with mobility impairments. This lack of accessibility can create serious safety concerns for disabled and vulnerable individuals, putting their lives at risk in the event of an emergency.

Evacuation chairs serve as a critical solution to this issue, providing a safe and reliable means of evacuation for individuals with mobility impairments. These specially designed chairs are lightweight and portable, allowing trained staff or volunteers to easily transport individuals down stairs or over rough terrain during an emergency. Additionally, evacuation chairs are often equipped with safety features such as brakes and restraints to ensure a secure and controlled descent, further enhancing the safety of the evacuation process.

Aside from their crucial role in ensuring the safety of disabled and vulnerable individuals, evacuation chairs also play a vital role in meeting legal and ethical obligations. Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and similar legislation in other countries, building owners and managers are required to provide equal access and accommodations for people with disabilities. This includes ensuring that disabled individuals have a safe means of evacuation in the event of an emergency. Failure to provide accessible evacuation options can lead to legal repercussions, not to mention the moral responsibility to protect the safety and well-being of all individuals, regardless of their physical abilities.

When considering the implementation of evacuation chairs in buildings, it’s important for organizations to prioritize accessibility and inclusivity. This means not only providing the necessary equipment but also ensuring that staff are properly trained in the operation and use of evacuation chairs. This training is essential for ensuring that all individuals, both disabled and able-bodied, have equal opportunities for safe evacuation in the event of an emergency.

Moreover, the need for evacuation chairs goes hand in hand with the broader issue of creating inclusive and accessible environments for all individuals. Building designs that incorporate universal accessibility principles not only benefit disabled individuals but also contribute to a more inclusive and welcoming society. By prioritizing the needs of disabled and vulnerable individuals in emergency planning and building design, we can move closer to a world where all individuals have equal opportunities for safety and security.

The need for evacuation chairs in buildings extends beyond legal compliance and ethical considerations; it also represents a fundamental human right. The United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) recognizes the right of all individuals, including those with disabilities, to equal access to safety and emergency services. This includes the right to accessible evacuation routes and appropriate accommodations in the event of an emergency.

By failing to provide accessible means of evacuation for disabled and vulnerable individuals, we are not only neglecting legal and ethical responsibilities but also denying individuals their basic human rights. It’s essential for organizations and building managers to recognize the importance of inclusive emergency planning and invest in the necessary resources, such as evacuation chairs, to ensure equal evacuation safety for all individuals.

In conclusion, the need for evacuation chairs in buildings is a pressing concern that demands attention from building owners, managers, and policymakers. By prioritizing accessibility and inclusivity in emergency planning and building design, we can ensure that all individuals, regardless of their physical abilities, have equal opportunities for safe evacuation in the event of an emergency. Implementing evacuation chairs not only fulfills legal and ethical obligations but also represents a fundamental human right – the right to equal access to safety and security for all individuals. It’s time to make inclusive emergency planning a top priority and ensure that no one is left behind when it comes to evacuation safety.

Ultimate Evacuation Chair Training Guide

Owning an evacuation chair is one of the most inclusive and forward-thinking things that you can do to ensure the safe evacuation of all personnel during an emergency evacuation.

Over the years, cities and businesses have made huge strides in enacting legislation that requires buildings to be accessible to all people. But we still have some way to go. During emergency situations, elevators may lose power — thankfully, in just such an event, an evacuation chair will promise the safe, comfortable, and quick evacuation of individuals with mobility challenges.

In this post, we’ll discuss how to use an evacuation chair to its fullest potential, how and where to install your chair, and how to raise awareness among colleagues and team members about the evacuation chair’s benefits.

What Is an Evacuation Chair?

An emergency evacuation chair is a device that’s used to assist a wide variety of people so that they can be evacuated safely from a multi-story building in the event of an emergency situation, people including:

• those with visual impairments,
• persons with temporary injuries — like fractures and sprains,
• people with joint issues,
• pregnant persons,
• individuals with respiratory or heart problems,
• people with assistive devices, like wheelchairs, motorized scooters, and walkers, and
• anyone who has trouble navigating staircases.

An emergency could be anything from a power outage to a gas leak to a fire or flood.

It’s important to not make assumptions about people who use evacuation chairs . Some people may have invisible mobility issues that are not outwardly apparent.

Raising Awareness Internally with Your Team

First and foremost, it’s important to factor the building evacuation chair into your evacuation protocol. As mentioned above, while it might not outwardly be apparent that someone on staff or in residence needs assistance during an emergency, it’s important to always be prepared — just in case.

In any emergency, you want employees to keep calm and orderly, and to be able to help their colleagues who need assistance.

While Evacuscape chairs are easy to assemble and operate, it’s recommended that all team members are trained properly on how to use them to avoid confusion and panic during an emergency. Consider hosting evacuation chair demonstrations .

Evacuscape evacuation chairs helpfully come with an informational DVD to assist you with your training .

Where Should You Locate Your Emergency Evacuation Chair(s)?

In an emergency evacuation plan , include a refuge point. A refuge point is a place where persons requiring assistance can safely wait until help arrives. If your office is in a new build, a refuge point may already be included in the building floor plan. It’s good idea to have an evacuation chair at this location.

The evacuation plan should also include a process of notification if someone who requires assistance is waiting at the refuge point — whether there’s a two-point messaging system or to notify the fire marshal .

Evacuation chairs should be located by emergency exits of the building. It’s recommended that there’s a chair at every level. This is especially important when using evacuation chairs in hospitals or in residential nursing homes, where there will be a higher population of individuals in need.

Evacuscape evacuation chairs can be easily mounted on any wall using the provided wall bracket. Each chair also comes with a protective cover.

Understanding the Two Types of Evacuscape Evacuation Chair

Both Evacuscape evacuations chairs are made with superior, light-weight materials. Both come with a wall mount, training DVD and a protective cover.

• Our ec1 model is the more basic of the two chairs. It’s ideal for those who have limited mobility, but don’t require extra supports to be safely assisted. It comes with a lap belt and head restraint, padded seat and back rest.
• Our ec2 model is designed for those who need a little more support. In addition to the features of the ec2, it has a braking system (explained below), a five-point harness and a carry handle.

How to Use an Emergency Evacuation Chair

Evacuation chairs are designed to be deployed easily and quickly. During an emergency situation , there’s no time for confusion or ambiguity.

Here’s the five-step process showcasing just how easy it is to assemble and use an Evacuscape evacuation chair.

• Step 1. Take off the cover and remove the chair from its wall mount.
• Step 2. Undo the seatbelt to lower the seat and track.
• Step 3. Push the seat down until it is fully deployed.
• Step 4. Pull the rear wheels out until they lock into place.
• Step 5. Pull out the adjustable pins (these are black knobs; they’re located by the backrest on the horizontal side bars) and pull the adjustable handle upwards until it locks into place.

Switching Between Transit Mode to Descent Mode

Now that the chair is fully assembled, while in transit mode, the chair will glide smoothly over flat surfaces. And in descent mode, it will easily maneuver downstairs.

The user should abide by the following steps to ensure safe transport:

• Step 1. Change your hand position from a top grip (holding the top horizontal bar) to mid grip (holding the vertical side bars, just to the side of the passenger’s head rest).
• Step 2. Tilt the Evacuscape chair forward until it stops.
• Step 3. Using your foot, push the rear wheels forward, underneath the seat of the chair, until they fold into frame.
• Step 4. To descend the stairs, push the chair confidently over the first two steps — this is so our tracking system will grip the edge of the stairs and gain friction, allowing you to manage the speed of descent.

Push down on the handle so that the track sits firmly on the stairs’ edges to ensure a smooth and controlled descent.

When you reach the bottom of the stairs, gently tilt the chair forward, then pull the rear wheels back out with your foot so that the chair is now back in transit mode.

Using the Brakes

Our ec2 Model has a patented braking system which gives the driver extra control when assisting persons downstairs.

To use the brake, simply compress the second horizontal bar. The brake must then be pressed to use the chair. Letting go of the brake locks the track system, allowing for easy stops.

Returning the Evacuscape Chair to Its Storage Position

• Step 1. Pull out the adjustable pins (as mentioned in Step 5 above).
• Step 2. Push the handle down.
• Step 3. Tilt the chair forward until it stops.
• Step 4. Push the rear wheels under the frame with your foot.
• Step 5. Lift the seat up and click the seatbelt around it, holding the seat in place.
• Step 6. Hang the Evacuscape chair back on the wall bracket or in its secure storage space and replace the protective cover.

Evacuscape evacuation chairs are designed and manufactured in the United Kingdom . They’re made with durability and longevity in mind.

Owning an evacuation chair is important for an inclusive approach to emergency evacuations. If you’re now the proud owner of one or more for your building, thank you for keeping all employees, residents, patients, and pupils in mind when it comes to a safe evacuation.

EVACUATION CHAIR TRAINING

THE IMPORTANCE OF KNOWING THE CORRECT WAY TO OPERATE YOUR EVAC+CHAIR

Fire and safety requirements and emergency response guidelines recognise the importance to ensure all occupants, including those with disabilities can evacuate a building in an emergency.

In an emergency, elevators cannot be used for evacuation, so stairs are the main escape route from a facility for all persons.  For the disabled and mobility impaired this is a major problem in an emergency situation, so Evac+Chair evacuation chairs must be considered.

Evac+Chair evacuation chairs offer safe evacuation for any people unable to use stairs for evacuation to lower levels and can be operated by only one person.

When using Evac+Chair evacuation chairs, you must ensure that the persons within the building are trained to use the Evac+Chair, via internal evacuation training or by an Evac+Chair Certified Trainer.  When choosing an evacuation chair training course, you must ensure your employees receive comprehensive theoretical and practical training from a fully qualified and experienced trainer.

For more information on Evac Chair Training or using an Evac Chair evacuation chair, please contact us for more information on (516) 502-4240.

What is an Evac Chair?

An evac chair is a specially designed chair used to safely evacuate people with limited mobility, such as those who have disabilities, injuries, or other conditions that make stair descent difficult or impossible

What is Evac Chair Training?

Every organisation should be prepared for emergency evacuation, so that all building occupants exit swiftly and safely.

In the event of a fire or an emergency within a multistoried building, elevators cannot be used as a means of escape. Stairs are the safest option, whether up or down.

However, where a disabled or immobile person is concerned, swift and safe escape via a stairwell becomes a little more difficult – hence the need for evacuation chairs.

Evac chair training is specialized training that teaches individuals how to operate evacuation chairs, which are designed to safely transport individuals with mobility impairments down stairs during an emergency evacuation.

Running on rollers, they can ascend and descend stairs smoothly and quickly, offering a viable means of escape for both the user and the operator.

Why is Evac Chair Training important?

Using an evac chair correctly, especially in a high-tension, emergency situation, is not as simple as it might look. It does require technique. Incorrect usage may even increase the risk of injury.

The responsible persons (i.e. the potential operators) must be confident in their ability to use the device if the time ever comes, which requires full training.

What do you learn on the course?

Our evacuation chair training prepares all potential operators for safe and effective use of the equipment, as well as fully informing them of the legislation and theory behind it.

What does the the course cover?

The following areas will be covered:

• Chair operation (practical use by delegates)
• Manual handling
• Anatomy & physiology
• Record keeping
• Accident statistics
• Workplace injury statistics
• Safety legislation related to the evacuation chair
• Risk assessments of individuals who may need to use the chair

In short, the course is designed to make your employees fully aware of their responsibilities when it comes to evacuating their co-workers.

How long does the training take?

Our training course lasts three hours covers every aspect of evacuation chair usage.

Is there an assessment?

There is no formal examination, but each attendee will be required to set up and operate the chair under the supervision of our trainers.

Do you receive certification?

Yes. Each person who completes the course will receive their own certificate.

How long is certification valid for?

How often should the training be carried out.

Evac chair training should be refreshed regularly, typically every two years, to ensure that individuals are up-to-date with the latest guidelines and techniques for using evacuation chairs. As our certification lasts two years, we recommend training is carried out as soon as this expires.

Where is the training held?

To give you the most relevant advice, we usually come to your premises and provide on-site training with your existing chair (if already installed). However, we can also host the training at one of our nationwide training locations. Just let us know your requirements and we will make the necessary arrangements.
