听A Message About Emergency Procedures at 快活林性息

Emergency procedures听for students, faculty, and staff听provide guidance in what to do in various emergencies, including an active shooter incident.听Specifically, in an active shooter emergency, remember the following:

Get Out!听 When you hear gunshots, don鈥檛 second guess the situation.听 Get out immediately if at all possible.听 If you are out in the open, take cover or run away in a zig zag pattern.

Hide Out!听 Find a location, lock or blockade the door, turn off the lights, spread out with others in the room and make a plan.

Help Out!听Help the injured as best you can until help arrives.听 Remain calm and quiet and be a calming influence for others.

Fight!听If neither running nor hiding is a safe option, as a last resort, when confronted by the shooter, consider trying to disrupt or incapacitate the shooter. This can be done by using aggressive force such as using items in the environment to throw at a shooter (fire extinguisher, chair, backpacks, etc.).听 This is a life/death situation in which your 鈥渟urvival mindset鈥� must take over!

Additionally, the Department of Police Services will utilize redundant methods of communication to send emergency messages and updates via email, voicemail, text, social media posts and emergency signage.
