Medical Emergencies

Medical Emergencies

  1. If an injury is minor, assist with basic first aid and complete accident/incident report. Students are not to be transported to a medical facility or home by employees.
  2. If an injury or illness appears serious, call 7911 (operator) and request a Code Blue. Be specific about your location and what you know about the incident. The Code Team will respond and after assessing the person’s condition will make the decision of whether additional assistance (such as calling 911) is necessary.
  3. If a serious medical emergency occurs after 4:30pm dial 911 immediately, then dial 7911.
  4. All medical situations must be followed up by completing an accident/incident report. These must be completed by the instructor (if the victim is a student) or supervisor (if the victim is an employee). Student reports are turned into Safety and Risk Office. If the victim is an employee, give reports to HR office. An injury to an employee also requires the completion of a Workers Compensation First Report of Injury
