Study Notes
Evacuation and Response Strategies
- Preferred response strategy is to evacuate when time and distance permit.
- ALICE strategies involve two main components: Awareness/ Communication and Response.
ALICE Enhanced Lockdown
- Includes actions such as locking the door, barricading the door, spreading out, and being prepared to either evacuate or counter an intruder.
Violent Critical Incidents
- A situation involving a person attempting to harm others without known motives is termed a Violent Critical Incident.
Student Preparedness
- Research shows that 90% of students felt prepared after participating in ALICE training.
Age-Appropriate Discussions
- It's crucial to tailor discussions about ALICE strategies to students' age and ability levels, as some aspects may not be applicable.
Awareness and Communication
- Strategies for Awareness and Communication do not include lockdown as part of ALICE’s approach.
Perception in New Environments
- Perception involves assessing the sights and sounds of a new environment, understanding the meaning behind those observations, and predicting outcomes based on choices made.
Response to Intruder Alerts
- Respond according to the strategy that best fits the situation and the information available when alerted about an intruder.
Best Practices for Informing Others
- While informing others about an intruder, use real-time information, provide as much detail as possible, and repeat the information for clarity.
Safe Exit Procedures
- To evacuate safely from a second-floor room during a violent incident, open or break the window, clear the glass, hang from the window, drop while bending knees, and roll upon landing.
Appropriate Use of Evacuation Strategy
- The evacuation strategy is suitable if you're in a location away from the threat, such as being in the cafeteria while an intruder is in another part of the building.
Enhanced Lockdown Techniques
- In a lockdown scenario, actions such as huddling in a corner are not considered part of ALICE's enhanced lockdown strategy.
Countering an Intruder
- If an intruder enters your space, immediate action such as throwing an object (e.g., a book) is classified as counters.
Cafeteria Response
- During incidents in communal areas like a cafeteria, focus should be on distraction and control techniques to manage the situation.
