The lack of preparation is staggering. My MIL's retirement home had them evacuated within 2 hours of the evac notice when Charley was headed our way.

They gave everybody a bag, told them to fill it with 2 changes of clothes, medicines, etc, and report to the lobby in 2 hours. The staff traveled with them to another residence inland. They used buses, vans, etc to relocate the elderly residents.

They used wheelchair transports for those that needed it.

I can't believe more planning hasn't gone into this worst case scenario.
