This paper studies the impact of guidance on evacuation processes. A Cellular Automata (CA) based model has been, therefore, elaborated in order to introduce group categorization and guidance attributes. The crowd is categorized according to motional skills and a special group is assigned leadership features. The presented scenario includes the evacuation of a retirement house with the help of the nursing staff. Simulation results prove the significance of proper guidance. The latter optimizes the response of the model by activating alternative routes that decrease congestion levels in front of exits.
