Case Studies

AWWA Community Home for Senior Citizens has installed Evac+Chair that facilitate the evacuation of mobility impaired people from the higher floors of buildings, via the stairways when the lifts is not in operation due to breakdown, maintenance, power outage or in an emergency evacuation due to fire, terrorist threats, earthquake, etc.

The caregivers are suitably trained to use the evacuation chair when it is needed. Mr. Koh, the Centre Manager say, " With the Evac+Chair, tt would make their job easier and safer should they have to move the senior residents from upper level to lower level or ground when the lifts is not working."
