If your life is being threatened, or if someone is seriously ill or injured, or if you just witnessed a serious incident dial triple zero (000) for emergency services (fire/ambulance/police).

3. Raise the alarm by activating a 'Break Glass' alarm
4. Evacuate via your closest safe exit
5. Call emergency services on triple zero (000) and Campus Security on 9351-3333

Campus Security is available 24 hours a day to assist with handling an emergency or if you're feeling unsafe on campus. Our security officers are certified to perform first aid and their vehicles are equipped with automated external defibrillators (AED).

Our security officers wear distinctive uniforms that are easy to identify and we encourage you to approach them if you need assistance.

A number of emergency help points are located across the Camperdown/Darlington Campus and can be found on our maps under 'Amenities'. These help points provide a direct link to Campus Security.

You can also reach security via 1800 SYD HLP (1800 793 457)

In some situations you may be required to evacuate. All University staff, students and visitors are required to respond to emergency alarms and follow instructions.

4. Follow exit signs to find your way out of the building (do not use lifts)

You will be notified of an emergency lockdown by emergency services, security or University emergency responders via building announcements or other mechanisms. These procedures are implemented to ensure building occupants are protected from external threats, e.g. severe storms or civil disturbance.

2. Stay inside the building
3. Follow instructions from staff, Campus Security and emergency services 

If a person is seriously ill or injured don't hesitate to call triple zero (000) and ask for an ambulance.

AEDs are easy to use. They guide users with step-by-step instructions using visual and voice prompts. Our AEDs will verbally request the responder to press the flashing shock button. AEDs won’t deliver a shock unless a shockable heart rhythm is detected. 

An AED should be applied as soon as possible. CPR should be administered while the AED is being retrieved.

AEDs are safe to use – just “Don’t Touch Patient” during shock delivery, as instructed by the voice prompt.

Many of the University's buildings are serviced by natural gas. This natural gas can be detected by odour.

In the event of a threat or attack with a weapon:

1. RUN (escape). Leave the immediate area, if safe to do so
   
   
2. HIDE. If it is not safe to leave, hide and silence your phone and other devices

When safe, advise (tell) the police of your situation by dialing Triple Zero (000).
