What do hospitals do with patients in a psych ward when there's a fire drill?

Asked by MyNewtBoobs (19059points) May 27th, 2011

Do they take them outside? Do they put them in restraints first? Do they just put them in their rooms? What if it’s not a drill, but an actual fire?

What about for patients in surgery? Do the surgeons just tell the family that, sorry, but instead of continuing to monitor the patient, they had to go stand outside for 10–20 minutes looking annoyed, bored, and slightly nervous?
