What is an evacuation?

Emergency evacuation is the immediate and rapid movement of people away from the threat or actual occurrence of a hazard. Examples: bomb threat, fire, flood, civil disturbances, toxic material releases, radiological and biological accidents, workplace violence. In some situations it may be better to shelter in place as directed by Emergency Personnel or College Officials.

What is this process designed to do?

This process is designed to establish a basic self-help protocol for emergency evacuations within each campus building.

How will I be notified of an evacuation?

The notification to evacuate may come from: Los Rios Alert System: This system will notify you by various means such as email, cell phone, and/or text message Building Alarm System: Fire alarms Los Rios Police, Other Emergency Responders, or College/District Supervisor or Manager

Remember to:

• Leave the building by the nearest safe exit and alert others to do the same.
• Stay calm and exit in an orderly fashion. Do not use elevators.
• Be prepared to assist with the evacuation of persons with disabilities.
• Once outside of the building, report to the safest designated assembly area (see attached map for locations).
• Whenever possible, keep streets, fire lanes, hydrants, and walkways clear for emergency vehicles and personnel.
• Do not return to an evacuated building unless told to do so by an authorized official (police, fire, or College/District Supervisor or Manager).

The Los Rios Police Department employs California P.O.S.T (Peace Officers Standards and Training) certified sworn police officers who are responsible for protecting life and property at all locations within the Los Rios Community College District. The college and district have excellent working relationships with emergency and law enforcement agencies serving our communities. 

National Incident Management System (NIMS) and Standardized Emergency Management System (SEMS) Training is an integrated emergency management system that is a comprehensive national approach to incident management during an emergency. By having employees understand this system, then we can be better prepared to establish and sustain the level of capability necessary to execute a wide range of incident management operations during an emergency.

In the event of a serious emergency or local area disaster, Los Rios will provide critical information to students and employees via the Los Rios Alert system. Emergency alerts are issued via text, phone call, and email.
