A modern drill management system serves as a school district’s digital command center and dashboard where school districts can do everything in one place – schedule and conduct safety drills, send drill reminders, oversee all drill-related activities, access emergency plan documentation, view drill reports and analytics, and more. With the drill management system included on CatapultEMS’ platform, school district administrators and safety leaders can manage safety drills from any web-enabled device.
In addition to helping school districts comply with local and state requirements, safety drills also help prepare administrators, staff, and students for real emergencies or threatening incidents on or near campus. When everyone is well-practiced on what actions to take when disaster strikes, they are less likely to panic in a real incident, which means they are more likely to take the correct course of action, therefore maximizing safety.
Yes, a modern and robust drill management system has the potential to make school sites and school districts more efficient in their drill practices, which can reduce drill time. Some CatapultEMS clients have been successful in reducing lockdown/evacuation drill time from more than 15 minutes to 3 minutes or less with 99.9% student accountability.
Because the CatapultEMS system is mobile-enabled, administrators and staff can receive important notifications straight to their smartphones, which cuts down on communication delays. They’re also equipped with automated emergency response directives that guide them on the most appropriate action to take, as well as easy-to-access rosters for student accountability reporting.
