Evacuation Equipment FAQs

What is evacuation equipment used for?

Evacuation equipment is designed to safely move patients or residents who cannot self-evacuate during fire emergencies. Products include evacuation mats, sledges and sheets that enable carers to transport individuals downstairs or along corridors quickly and safely.

Do care homes need evacuation equipment?

Yes, care homes should have appropriate evacuation equipment to comply with fire safety regulations and ensure all residents can be safely evacuated in an emergency, including those with mobility impairments or who are bed-bound.

What's the difference between an evacuation mat and an evacuation sledge?

Evacuation mats are flexible, lightweight sheets ideal for stair evacuation with secure head support and handles. Evacuation sledges are rigid, shaped devices with runners designed for horizontal movement across floors and short distances.

Is evacuation equipment reusable?

Most evacuation mats and sledges are reusable and designed for multiple uses. They should be regularly inspected, cleaned and stored properly for emergency readiness and included in fire drill training.

How many evacuation mats should a care home have?

The number depends on your facility size and resident mobility levels. We recommend at least one evacuation mat per floor, with additional units for facilities with multiple residents requiring assisted evacuation.
