What type of count occurs after an escape?

• A. Immediate Count
• B. Regular Count
• C. Phase Count
• D. Advanced Count

Answer: (B)

Counts are about keeping everyone accounted for, and the sequence after an escape is about moving from urgent containment back to normal routines. Right after an escape, you first perform an immediate count to quickly determine who is missing and locate the escapee. Once that immediate check is done, you return to the standard, scheduled procedure—the regular count—to maintain ongoing accountability. So the regular count is the best answer because it describes resuming the normal counting rhythm after the initial emergency step. The immediate count is used during the incident itself, not after it’s resolved, and phase or advanced counts aren’t standard terms in this context.
