Emergency Plan

Fire Alarm Tests  

  • The fire alarm bells should be tested weekly. Staff/service users should be advised that a test is taking place and that staff /service users are not required to take any action.  

  • To account for all present in the building, it is vital that all visitors sign the visitors’ book in reception on arrival and departure.  

  • Please ensure that any fire doors are not propped open. It would be appreciated if you could close any which you find open.  

  • Offices and walkways are to be kept clear of obstacles. Papers and files may not be stored on the floor at any time.  

Fire Procedures  

If you discover a fire, sound the alarm by breaking the glass at the closest alarm point.  

  • Do not attempt to tackle the fire with a fire extinguisher or fire blanket if doing so would place your safety at risk.  

  • If the fire alarm sounds, evacuate the building immediately by following the signed fire escape route, closing doors behind you, and assemble in the designated assembly point. You are responsible for encouraging the service users you are with to evacuate the building with you.  

  • Dial (9) 999 to call the fire brigade.  

  • Do not return to the building until the fire brigade has declared it safe to do so.
