Like most inner city areas, Fitzroy presents a range of challenges so we recommend the following approaches:
If you sense you are in trouble:
There are first aid kits in every building on campus. Look for the green cross first aid signs.
We also have a number of staff on campus who are trained in first aid. If you come across an incident requiring first aid, please contact your nearest staff member.
In an emergency evacuation, don’t panic! Emergency and evacuation posters are on display in every building.
At all times during an emergency follow the instructions of the Building and Area Wardens.
If the evacuation alarm sounds, or if instructed to do so by a Warden, leave the building by the nearest and safest exit route.
If possible take hand held personal belongings (such as handbags and briefcases) with you when you leave. Do not return to collect belongings.
Walk quickly and calmly to the designated assembly area for your building or as advised by a Warden or Fire and Emergency Services personnel.
