Children on Campus

Important Updates

A new policy — SPG 601.91 Clery Act Compliance — outlines the expectations of the U-M Division of Public Safety and Security and employees designated as CSAs in the university’s compliance with the Clery Act.  Adults working with minors have been identified as CSAs and must complete the mandatory training annually in addition to the required CoC training modules. Any questions related to Clery training requirements can be directed to CleryAct-Compliance@umich.edu.

Responding to Emergencies

Progress: 0%
  • Minor illnesses and injuries require different responses than major situations that may require calling 911
  • Identify triggers for determining levels of emergencies:
    • Is first aid treatment sufficient?
    • Is there head trauma?
    • Choking?
    • Loss of consciousness?
    • Difficulty breathing?
    • Severe injury or bleeding?
    • Are there complicating factors that increase risk?

    When in doubt — call 911!

    • Assess the situation using established criteria
    • Determine whether EMS needs to be called
    • When EMS is needed, dial 911. Know the exact street location for program activities.
    • If possible, remove other children and unnecessary adults from area
    • Document all emergency interventions and inform first responders
    • Provide copies of Medical Authorization to Treat form
    • One adult should accompany the child to the hospital
    • Notify parents/guardians or designated emergency contact persons as soon as possible
    • Stay with child until responsible adult arrives
