Health, aged care & vulnerable uses

Facilities accommodating vulnerable populations demand a heightened level of care in bushfire planning.

Blackash works with project teams and authorities to assess bushfire risk for hospitals, aged care facilities and other sensitive uses where life safety considerations are paramount. Planning advice considers evacuation capability, access arrangements, defendability and operational response under bushfire conditions.
