EVACUATION DECISION MAKING GUIDELINES
FOR HEALTH AND AGED CARE FACILITIES PROJECT
Commencing January 2015, NSW Health Emergency Management Unit has embarked on the Evacuation Decision Making Guidelines for Health and Aged Care Facilities Project,funded under the joint State/Commonwealth Natural Disaster Resilience Program.
The aim of this project is to build resilience of Health & Aged Care Services across NSW so that they are not as reliant on emergency services in times of crisis.
Our project will build a resource that will be able to be translated across all agencies with the final product, a document that will provide a state-wide systematic framework to inform Health and Aged Care Facilities and emergency workers on the need (or not) for evacuation.

Tim Costello
CEO
Tim Costello is one of Australia’s most recognised voices on social justice, leadership and ethics, having engaged in public debates on gambling, urban poverty, homelessness, reconciliation and substance abuse.
Since 2004, as Chief Executive of World Vision Australia, Tim has also been instrumental in ensuring that the issues surrounding global poverty are placed on the national agenda.
His passion for justice and for helping to alleviate the suffering of poor communities in the developing world quickly became evident when the devastating Asia tsunami struck on Boxing Day, 2004.
