Emergency Procedures

Emergency Response Plan

University departments are responsible for developing contingency plans and continuity of operations plans for their staff and areas of responsibility. 绿茶直播 conducts numerous emergency response exercises each year, such as tabletop exercises, field exercises, and tests of the emergency notification system on campus. These tests are designed to assess and evaluate the emergency plans and capabilities of the institution.

绿茶直播听police officers and supervisors are trained in incident command and responding to critical incidents on campus. When a serious incident occurs which causes an immediate threat to the campus, the first responders to the scene are 绿茶直播 Police, Monroe Police, Monroe Fire听and Monroe HAZMAT. Collectively, these first responders work together to manage the incident. Depending on the nature of the incident, other 绿茶直播听departments and other local, state or federal agencies could also be involved in responding to the incident.

Emergency Evacuation Procedures

Emergency Evacuation Procedures are coordinated by 绿茶直播's听Environmental Health and Safety office, in coordination with 绿茶直播's Residential Life office each semester for all residential facilities on campus. Thus, the emergency response and evacuation procedures are tested at least twice each year and, for some of the buildings, multiple times a year.

Students learn the locations of the emergency exits in the buildings and are provided guidance about the direction they should travel when exiting each facility for a short-term building evacuation. 绿茶直播's Environmental Health and Safety does not tell residents in advance about the designated locations for long-term evacuations because those decisions are affected by time of day, location of the building being evacuated, the availability of the various designated emergency gathering locations on campus, and other factors such as the location and nature of the threat. In both cases, 绿茶直播 and听绿茶直播's Residential Life staff on the scene will communicate information to students regarding the developing situation or any evacuation status changes.

The purpose of evacuation drills is to prepare building occupants for an organized evacuation in case of a fire or other emergency. At 绿茶直播, evacuation drills are used as a way to educate and train occupants on fire safety issues specific to their building.

During the drill, occupants "practice" drill procedures and familiarize themselves with the location of exits and the sound of the fire alarm. Palm cards with educational information are distributed to residents re-entering a facility immediately after an evacuation drill. In addition to educating the occupants of each building about the evacuation procedures during the drills, the process also provides 绿茶直播 an opportunity to test the operation of fire alarm system components.

Evacuation drills are monitored by 绿茶直播听Police, 绿茶直播's听Environmental Health and Safety Office, and听绿茶直播's Residential Life to evaluate egress (exit)听and behavioral patterns. Reports are prepared by participating departments听which identify deficient equipment so repairs can be made immediately. Recommendations for improvements are also submitted to the appropriate departments/offices for consideration.

Students who live in听绿茶直播's Residence Halls听receive information about evacuation and shelter-in-place procedures during their First Floor meetings and during other educational sessions they can participate in throughout the year. Residential Life staff are trained in these procedures as well and act as an on-going resource for the students living in residential facilities.听
