This descriptive quantitative study evaluated the extent of evacuation management plan implementation as experienced by the residents of Brgy. Poblacion, San Francisco, Surigao del Norte. The respondents were 123 residents and were selected through convenient sampling. The data gathered were analyzed and treated using the following descriptive statistical tools: frequency count and percentage distribution, mean and standard deviation, and analysis of variance (ANOVA). Results showed that the camp coordination and management plan was moderately implemented. This suggests that while the plan is being implemented to some extent, there is room for improvement to ensure a more effective and robust evacuation process in the future. In addition, the findings showed a significant degree of difference in the perceived implementation extent of the evacuation phase with respect to the respondents’ years of residency, indicating that length of stay may impact residents’ knowledge, familiarity with the area, and ability to contribute to the community’s resilience during evacuations. Finally, it was recommended that implementing the recommended strategies, actions and proposed enhancement plan can have a transformative impact on the barangay’s camp coordination and management plan.
