KEY POINT

Black checkmarkFacility managers must understand the Ohio Administrative Code requirements for educational and institutional facilities that have special needs populations with respect to SIP and evacuation. This knowledge will enable them to work with Incident Command to insure that these populations are protected.

Per the Ohio Administrative Code (OAC) 4101:1-3-01, educational and institutional facilities include K-12 schools, child and adult day care centers, assisted living facilities, convalescent facilities, nursing homes, prisons, jails and detention centers and hospitals.

The occupants of these facilities have a variety of special needs. The Ohio Fire Code (OAC 1301:7-7-04), Emergency Planning and Preparedness, mandates that educational and institutional facilities have a fire safety and evacuation plan.
