Emergency Preparedness for Schools: How Instant Access to Facility Information Improves Response Times

K-12 schools face significant emergency preparedness challenges, from floods and power outages to equipment failures that delay response times. Many schools still rely on paper-based plans, lack real-time communication, and struggle with inconsistent emergency training, making quick decision-making difficult. By digitizing emergency action plans and providing mobile access to critical facility information, schools can enhance coordination, improve response times, and ensure staff and emergency responders have instant access to essential building details when it matters most.
