Useful Information
When reporting an emergency, it is important
to provide information to the Public Safety
Dispatcher in a calm and clear manner.
Depending upon the nature of the emergency,
the caller may be asked to stay on the line
in order for the dispatcher to obtain more
information.
-
All 7777 calls are given priority, as
the may involve immediate threats to
life and/or property.
-
The Public Safety Dispatcher is the
person best able to coordinate the
necessary responding agencies in an
emergency situation.
-
Public Safety Officers are all state
certified as Medical Response
Technicians (MRT) or Emergency Medical
Technicians (EMT).
-
Please do not place calls directly to
off-campus resources (911, police, fire,

respond quickly to an emergency and are
equipped to coordinate a response from
other agencies (police, fire, ambulance)
as needed.
-
If evacuation is necessary, go to the
nearest exit and leave the building
quickly. Do not call Public Safety to
ask questions. Do not use an elevator
during evacuation and maintain a safe
distance from the subject building once
you have evacuated.
