应急程序

有时, emergencies may occur on campus, and while we cannot prepare for every eventuality, there are measures to be taken during any emergency, and some steps to be taken for 特殊紧急情况. 

In general, emergencies require you to be able to do the following:

• 成为 意识到 紧急情况
• 报告 紧急
• 回应 紧急情况
• 恢复 from the emergeny and begin to resume normal activity.

意识

Being 意识到 of 紧急 can occur from first hand knowledge or through notification processes.

• 非盟警报
• Individual building fire alarm/mass notification systems
• 龙卷风警报

报告

Once you become 意识到 of 紧急, you need to make sure that others are 意识到 紧急情况 as well. This can include activating the fire alarm system for a fire, 拨打911, or reporting non-life threatening emergencies to the 校园安全办公室. 

当涉及到报道, you cannot assume that others will call for help and you therefore must take that initiative. 

Whenever you report 紧急, you may be asked to provide some of the following information. It is important that you take the time to become familiar with these items in your daily routine, whether going to class or to work.

• Type of emergency (fire, hostile threat, medical, etc.)
• 位置
  • 街道地址
  • 建筑的名字
  • Foor /房间号码
  • Cardinal direction (North, South, East, West)
• Any hazards (chemical storage, natural gas connection, weapons, etc.)
• Any personal knowledge (medical history, extenuating circumstances, etc.)

If your emergency may require the assistance of other University departments (咨询 & Testing, 校园部门, Plant 服务s, etc.) the 校园安全办公室 will contact these departments as well. 

回应

While the response varies with each emergency there are some steps to consider when responding to any emergency.

• Upon notification of 紧急, you must act immediately. Whether a fire or a hostile threat, seconds to minutes can have a significant effect on the situation.
• In most large scale emergencies (affecting an entire building) you will need to either evacuate the building or shelter/secure yourself in the building. 
• 在紧急情况下, having some level of training can prove beneficial for your own safety, along with the mitigation 紧急情况.

While you are in class or at work, take time to identify the safest nearest exit and how to secure the room you are in.

The 校园安全办公室 does offer some training through the following venues. 

• In person fire extinguisher training (with live fire) 
• 封锁 training (both 在线 and in person)
• 自卫训练
• Emergency preparedness drills (fire, lockdown, tornado)

If you would like to participate in these trainings, please contact our office.

复苏

You must have a reliable method to identify when 紧急 is over and cannot rely on on assumptions (i.e. when the fire alarm is silenced, it is safe to return). Whether you evacuated from a building or were directed to shelter in the building, you will typically be notified by emergency services or 校园安全 that the emergency is over. Until that time, you are asked to maintain the directed emergency response.

In large scale emergencies, 非盟警报 will be used to announce an "all clear" (except for a tornado). 在小规模紧急情况下, the "all clear" may come from emergency services, 校园安全, 或大学雇员.

If you are unclear on whether the emergency has ended, you can contact 911 or 校园安全 where applicable and when safe to do so.

After receiving notice of the "all clear", you may be directed to take additional actions which could include; moving to a different location, meeting with emergency services to provide statements, or adjusting your regular work/class schedule as directed by the University.

After 紧急 the last step to take is to take care of yourself. Some emergencies can be traumatic and may have an effect on you. The University does have resources to help you resume your regular activities. If you or someone you know needs assistance, you can notify any of the following departments or submit a 医疗报告 在线.
