In the realm of CBRN emergency response, the decontamination of individuals is a critical process, especially in scenarios involving hazardous materials or biological threats. For people with disabilities, this procedure presents unique challenges that require specialized assistive and supportive devices to ensure their safety and well-being. The UCPM KAPP project eNOTICE-2 addresses these challenges by equipping first responders, including firefighters, civil protection and emergency health responders, with the necessary tools and knowledge to effectively decontaminate individuals with disabilities and assistive devices. This document presents the classification of available assistive devices.
