The 美高梅官网 is committed to providing a safe and environment for students, employees, and guests. One means of achieving that goal is the development of Building Emergency Plans.听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听

It is impossible to predict campus emergencies or the magnitude of such emergencies. The complexity of a campus like the 美高梅官网 requires the full support of departments, faculty, staff, and students to successfully implement a Building Emergency Plan. The development, distribution, and familiarization of Building Emergency Plans are essential for student and employee safety.听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听 听听

Guidelines in this sample plan document are reflective of policies/procedures in place at the 美高梅官网 Department of Public Safety, Cincinnati Fire Department, and Ohio Fire Marshall.听 All permanent and transient building occupants should become familiar with the information contained in these Building Emergency Plans.

1. Building Components:听The entire area is an outdoor facility.
2. Emergency System Components:听Since the Tennis Center is an entirely an outdoor facility, there are no emergency system components located inside the area. There are Hamilton County speakers located in the area for county emergency notification
3. Area of Rescue Assistance (ARA):听An ARA is an area where persons unable to use stairways can remain temporarily to await instructions or assistance during an emergency evacuation. There are no Areas of Rescue Assistance located in the Tennis Center. For a complete list of ARA campus location, please see the 美高梅官网 Emergency Management website.听

Tennis Center access is open 24/7.

The 美高梅官网 911 Communications Center is interconnected with other communications centers operated by the City of Cincinnati, Hamilton County, and Clermont County. All four centers operate 24/365. All 911 calls using campus phones will be routed to the 美高梅官网 Communications Center regardless from which campus a call is placed. A 911 call from a cell phone will typically (but not always) be routed to the nearest city or county dispatch center. It is imperative that whenever placing a 911 call using a cell phone from any location that the caller provides the call-taker with the specific 美高梅官网 Campus and location where emergency assistance is needed.听 For example: 911 call takers are trained to ask callers, 鈥�911, where is your emergency鈥�? The caller should reply, 鈥淭he 美高梅官网 Blue Ash Campus; Walters Hall; Room 144鈥�.听 The city/county center receiving the call will ask for some additional information and then transfer the caller to the 美高梅官网 Communications Center while simultaneously notifying emergency responders in the appropriate geographical area.

Building Safety Points of Contact will attempt to account for all occupants after a building evacuation. Building occupants are strongly urged to check in at predetermined building evacuation collection points for accountability purposes, and so that emergency responders do not have to unnecessarily enter buildings searching for 鈥渕issing鈥� building occupants. Building Safety POCs will report any missing occupants and their last known location to emergency responders.听

Building Safety POCs are required for each Department. These individuals (or alternates) are responsible to make all reasonable efforts to ensure that evacuation/relocation takes place when an emergency alarm system is activated or a severe weather alert necessitates relocation within a building. Building Safety POCs will not jeopardize personal safety while attempting to ensure that building occupants have taken appropriate protective actions. Building Safety POCs are also responsible to account for departmental employees and visitors who may have assembled at the designated evacuation/relocation points post building evacuation/relocation. 美高梅官网 Public Safety Emergency Management and Fire Inspectors will provide additional information to Building Safety POCs and alternates upon request.

Building Safety POCs are responsible to maintain a list of Building Safety POC alternates, and to ensure that all building occupants have received a copy of the Building Emergency Plan.听

     • Note:听 Unless otherwise stipulated, the Ohio Fire Code mandates evacuation of building occupants whenever a fire alarm is activated.听 All fire alarms are emergencies until resolved by 美高梅官网 Public Safety or authorities having jurisdiction.
2. Severe Weather:听 Campus warning systems will be activated for tornado warnings (i.e. a tornado has been sighted in the alert area).听 听 听 听 听听

4. Illness or Injury:听For illness or injuries requiring medical assistance, call 911 from a 美高梅官网 landline to reach the 美高梅官网 911 Communications Center.听 Calling 911 from a cell phone will typically contact the nearest 911 Communications Center. However, when using a cell phone, make sure to inform the dispatcher of your exact location including campus, building, and room number.
   • After notifying 911, the dispatcher will send emergency medical assistance as needed
   • Someone should meet emergency services at the building entrance to escort emergency personnel directly to the ill/injured person
5. Active Shooter
   • RUN:
     • If you can escape safely during an active shooter event then run
     • Run immediately 鈥� leave everything behind
     • Encourage others to escape with you, but do not wait for them to decide
     • Once you are safely away from the shooter, then call 911 and report the incident
