Health and Safety

Health and Safety
Safety/Emergencies
You should familiarise yourself with emergency procedures for all areas where you
study, noting the location of
emergency exits, assembly points and equipment. In
case of a fire, immediately leave the building by the nearest exit point. Do not use the
lifts. Fire action notices are displayed in corridors and by fire escapes. In an
emergency, dial 3333 from any inter
nal phone and clearly state the nature and
location of the problem, your name, and the number you are calling from (if known). If
there is no internal phone available, call 999 and follow the normal procedure. You
should ensure that corridors and doorways
are not obstructed and that fire fighting
equipment is not removed from its station.

procedures is available at

First Aid
First Aid assistance for minor accidents can be obtained by dialling 3333 from an
internal phone, or 020 7882 3333 from any other telephone.
Medical Registra
tion
As a student of the University, you are required to be registered with a local medical
practitioner. You will have received details of how to register in the information pack
sent out by the University. Please ensure that you register as quickly as po
ssible.
The University has a Medical Centre, located on the ground floor of the Geography
Building, which can offer immediate help. A doctor is in attendance at certain times
for consultation, and a nurse staffs the Centre during opening hours. The Senio
r
Nursing Officer will treat minor ailments and provide immediate medical assistance if
an accident occurs on site. Further information is available at:
U
se of ID card
You will receive a University photo
-
ID card upon enrolment. This card is very
important, and must be worn at all times on campus. If you do not produce this card
upon request and satisfy staff that it is your card through comparison of your f
ace
and the photograph, you may be requested to leave the building, or campus.
The card shows your Student Number. You must take your card into all
examinations, and display it on your table for inspection.
The card also serves as your library card, and
as an access device for certain
buildings. Many buildings have security points at which you must show your card,
and others require you to scan your card to release the doors. The card will also be
used to register attendance at seminars. It is vital that
you keep your card safe and
with you at all times on campus. If you lose your card, or if your card is stolen, you
should contact Student Administration (Queens’ Building, Room CB05), who will be
able to help you. A fee may be charged to replace lost card
s.
