In this area there is a registry for people with "special needs". An honest attempt to take care of those on the registry is made. If it looks like a person dependent on power may, or does lose power emergency services tries to get them out and to a special shelter that can accommodate their situation.
Houston has the same type of program. Elderly and disabled people can add themselves to "The List" so that the next time there's an evacuation someone will come for them. They used to have bilingual billboards about it up all over town, though I don't recall seeing any lately...
