// Safety First

In an Emergency, Residents Are Responsible for Evacuating Themselves.

Rossmoor Walnut Creek is not a first response agency and cannot authorize an evacuation, but it will provide resources to assist first responders and civil authorities in their disaster response and recovery needs.

Each resident must be prepared and capable of self-evacuation. This includes:

Be prepared: Know your evacuation routes

Stay informed: Subscribe to emergency alerts

Plan ahead: Arrange transportation assistance if needed

Pack a Go-Bag: Keep essentials ready to go

Communicate: Ensure family and caregivers know your plan

To understand RWC's limited role in an emergency response, review the Emergency Operations Plan.
