Task: To role-play an environmental disaster and implement an evacuation plan.
Scenario: Role-play this scenario with your lab group: The building next door to the physician's
office where you work is on fire. One member of the group is the designated emergency action
coordinator, two individuals are responsible for helping patients with special needs out of the
facility, and one person is designated to be the last to leave after the building has been cleared.
In a community emergency situation, certain staff members may be designated to provide
immediate assistance to survivors. Two medical assistants are sent to help with fire victims.
How could medical assistants help in this situation? After the evacuation is complete, meet in a
designated spot to discuss the process and determine whether the evacuation plan could be
improved in any areas. Document the steps taken throughout the mock environmental event.
Scoring: Divide the points earned by the total possible points. Failure to perform a critical step,
indicated by an asterisk (*), results in an unsatisfactory overall score.
