Emergency Procedures

If any injury occurs, please contact a member of the Wellness & Fitness staff immediately. First Aid supplies are available at the Center and will be dispensed with discretion by the staff member on duty. In the event of an emergency, the (college nurse) Student Health Services/Comprehensive Health Resource Center and Campus Police will be notified for further action. Accident report forms must be completed by each injured party. Please cooperate fully with this procedure.

Fire and Tornado Procedures

The fire alarm is a fluctuating warble siren, and the tornado warning is a continuous siren blast for about 45 seconds. In the event of a fire, go directly to the nearest exit and remain outside until you are instructed it is safe to re-enter by the Wellness & Fitness Center staff, who will have been notified by the Fire Department or Campus Police. Do not use the elevator. Fire alarms and extinguishers are located conspicuously in the Allied Health Building. In the event of a tornado, go to the restrooms on the lower level. Stay away from glassed areas. When it is determined that the threat of a tornado no longer exists, the Campus Police will sound an "all clear" signal which will consist of three short siren blasts.
