All personnel (faculty, staff and students) should remain calm in any emergency. Panic leads to injury and destruction of property. Prioritize and keep radio traffic brief and to the point. Use plain talk on the radio, no ten codes. Any lengthy verbal statements should be made via telephone. Assist with shelter in place or evacuation if you are able. If you don’t need to be on your cell phone, keep the cells clear.
The college telephone operator shall call 911 to report all emergencies and stay on the line with telecommunicators until advised to release the line. The operator will notify security to call up the crisis response team (CRT) to report to the primary EOC when advised of the location. The operator will relay pertinent information to emergency responders.
Security officers will report to the designated staging area and escort police and fire officials to the EOC. Security officers will perform other duties as trained for specific incidents.
