Safety Information

Campus Resources:

  • ADA Transport: (858) 822-2603 (Student Injury Transportation Service) if a student needs to be transported to Campus Health Services they may be able to assist, but often there is a wait time.

Additional Information:

First Aid resources at Visual Arts are limited to ice packs, and band aids.

Over the counter medications should not be shared with students.

Unless you are a medical professional, students should be seen at UC Health Services or Thornton Hospital after hours.

If you are unsure of the extent of an injury or the student is not able to tend to themselves, call 911 and have a medical professional make that decision. The student can refuse care, but you will have the peace of mind that you did the right thing.
