Acorn's Care Evacuation Procedures
The nurse in charge will co-ordinate the staff on duty. They will call the fire brigade and will support the care staff who are responsible for a child.
Our hospices are built using a modular system with different fire zones contained by fire doors. While everyone should evacuate the building where possible, it is also reasonable for the care staff to move children to the safest part of the building, such as the zone furthest from the fire. This will be determined by the nurse in charge or fire wardens on site. This only applies to acorns children and their immediate care worker / nurse. All other people including volunteers should evacuate.
