Emergency Planning: Special Needs Registry |
|
Bucks, Chester and
Montgomery Counties have jointly developed this registry to allow
citizens with special needs and their associates an opportunity to
provide information to emergency response agencies, so emergency
responders can better plan to serve them in a disaster or other
emergencies.
For the purpose of this project, a special needs individual is
someone who cannot receive, understand or act upon emergency
protective orders.
The information collected here will not be available to the public.
The information will be held securely and only accessed for the
purpose of emergency response and planning.
Please be as complete as possible in your responses. You will be
e-mailed periodically to verify and ensure the information provided
is correct and to make any necessary changes. Individual surveys
will be archived after one year if not verified and facility surveys
will be archived after six months if not verified.
