After receiving an emergency call (x2200 or red phone), security may contact a member of the Crisis Response Team for assistance. The Crisis Response Team members who will be called by Security to help in an emergency situation include:

Each situation or crisis is different, and may require different handling after the call to Security (x2200 or red phone) is made. Security and the College Nurse may arrive at the scene after the call, and may decide that another member of the Crisis Response Team is needed.  At times, it may become necessary to escort the individual to a Crisis Response Team member or to an agreeable campus location until the Team member arrives. However, the person should never be left unattended until Security or another designated person arrives on the scene.  

We want to follow-up with students who are in crisis.  Please call Nancy Polonitza (x2495 or x632 in SEC), leave your name, a phone number at which you can be reached during daytime hours and a brief summary of the crisis situation that occurred.  If the student is comfortable with including his or her contact information, please include it in the message.
