Evac Q

I've always wondered this and would appreciate your comments.

In an emergency evacuation procedure what is the procedure for evacuating wheelchair or bed ridden medical patients ?

Do they get priority or do they get off last ?

And exactly how are they evacuated, are they just tossed down the chute regardless of their condition, or is there an alternative evacuation procedure for these patients ?

Of course the priority is to get out and get out fast and any possible injury has to be weighed against being burnt to a crisp. But just what are the procedures in these cases.
