Strengthen your organization’s emergency preparedness for multifamily housing in this practical virtual session led by Nick Mayo, senior risk control consultant at HAI Group. In this video, Mayo focuses on how housing providers can develop, maintain, and enhance evacuation plans that help safeguard residents, staff, and property during a wide range of emergencies.

Through this free training, you will learn how to review decision-making criteria for evacuating, relocating, or sheltering in place, identify building-specific planning needs, and conduct structured drills to reveal vulnerabilities before an actual incident occurs. Whether you oversee low-rise, mid-rise, or high-rise communities, this session delivers actionable guidance to strengthen readiness, streamline communication, and improve response effectiveness.

Key takeaways:

  • Identify common triggers for evacuation and emergency protective actions

  • Build effective evacuation plans based on building design and resident needs

  • Improve communication, accountability, and staff coordination

  • Conduct drills, document lessons learned, and strengthen future response efforts

  • Maintain plans through regular reviews and updates
