Emergency Procedures

In the event of an emergency, being prepared to react effectively is the most critical step in ensuring the health and safety of yourself and those around you.

Know Your Surroundings

Please take a few moments to review the maps of the TMS2019 facilities, which are printed in the TMS2019 Conference Guide and available on the TMS2019 App. When you enter these buildings, familiarize yourself with the exits and the stairs leading to those exits. When you arrive at your session or event location, look for the emergency exits that are in proximity to you.
