If you have an emergency, dial 911. You do NOT need any coins to dial 911 from a pay telephone. Simply lift the handset and dial 911. IMPORTANT: Because cell phone 911 calls are directed to the Faulkner County Sheriff's Department through cell towers without exact location displayed, be sure to inform the 911 dispatcher of your exact location on the UCA campus.
Conway Fire Department and Metro Emergency Medical System (MEMS) personnel are trained and certified as Emergency Medical Technicians. They will respond to medical emergencies on campus. Any injury occurring because of an existing hazardous condition should be reported to the UCAPD 911 Dispatcher.
EMERGENCY ACTION
The following is a brief summary of the procedures for requesting medical assistance.
The individual making the call should continue to stay on the phone with the dispatcher and answer as many questions as possible regarding the condition of the injured person so that information can be forwarded to the responding emergency personnel.
Illness or injury to students, faculty, or staff
Medical assistance can be provided faculty, staff, and students by Student Health Services if the individual needing assistance is ambulatory. Student Health Services provides treatment of minor injuries and illness during scheduled operating hours of 8:30 A.M to 4:30 P.M. Monday - Friday.
