Recommendations

Require annual training for those with responsibilities, such as floor
and stair monitors, during an emergency.

Require annual, unannounced, full-scale evacuation drills, including
mustering and accountability assessments, at all headquarters and
regional complexes.

Provide employees with periodic guidance reinforcing key points of
the agency’s occupant emergency plans and emergency procedures.

Develop procedures for ensuring that AEDs are routinely maintained
and checked for operability.

Post contact information and, where necessary, a telephone in the
immediate vicinity of all AED devices.
