Communication in Emergencies

As a chemical plume travels towards the Ruby Lake neighborhood, an evacuation order is issued. While there’s no such thing as an “easy” evacuation, the Ruby Lake evacuation is going to be especially challenging. The city’s evacuation plan for the neighborhood is outdated and was created before the population of Ruby Lake became predominantly Latino. To complicate matters, the chemical spill has caused road closings and traffic jams. Busses slated for the evacuation are facing delays, as are residents with cars who are trying to leave. A further challenge is the evacuation of the 93-bed Maplewood Rest Home.
As you watch the evacuation unfold, consider what works and what does not. What strategies could be used to improve the evacuation?
