Workplace Site Admins can create Response Templates for different types of incidents. A Response Template defines:
Who needs to be accounted for as evacuees
What statuses can be assigned to evacuees
Where evacuees can be marked as present
For schools, configure the Response Template for Reunification and set up a Guardian Form.
Create a Response Template
In Verkada Command, go to
All Products >
Incident Response.
On the left navigation, click Response Templates.
At the top, select your site.
Select Add Template and configure the template settings:
Response Templates are site-specific and apply to a single site.
General
Enter a unique Template Name.
Choose Template Color.
Choose Template Icon.
Enter a Template Description.
People
This setting defines who will be tracked as evacuees when a Response Template is launched. You can choose from three groups:
Students – All students in the school linked to the Workplace site.
Staff – All Workplace employees assigned to the site.
Visitors (from Guest) – All visitors signed in on the day the Response is launched.
Reunification
For K12 customers, enabling Reunification lets employees check in guardians and mark students as reunified. This adds a Reunified status for evacuees. Admins can also customize a Guardian Form to collect guardian information at check-in.
Person Statuses
Admins can define which statuses can be assigned to evacuees. If Reunification is enabled, a Reunified status will always be available.
Location Names
Admins can define where evacuees and guardians (if Reunification is enabled) are expected to assemble.
