Guidelines for communicating in emergencies

These guidelines might be useful to some in the current bushfire State of Emergency here in NSW:

Communicating with People with Disability: National Guidelines for Emergency Managers

These guidelines have been designed to support emergency managers to better understand the varied communication needs of people with disability. They are intended to inform and complement the wide range of policies and procedures developed at all levels of government, business and the not-for-profit sector in support of incident management and the delivery of emergency warnings.

• The guidelines, including a 'quick' version can be downloaded in  a variety of formats from the Australian Emergency Management website, here.
