Security Systems

All doors and windows are monitored.  Motion detectors monitor all halls.  Any drop or alarm from the system is dispatched from a local alarm company to our alarm responders who will arrive and address any concerns.  Any early-open or late-to-close alerts will be followed up by Alarm Response.  Local law enforcement assists as needed.

AED imageAEDs
An AED is used to treat victims who experience "Sudden Cardiac Arrest".  It is only to be applied to unconscious victims who are without pulse, signs of circulation, and normal breathing.  The AED will analyze the heart rhythm and advise the operator if a shockable rhythm is detected.  If a shockable rhythm is detected, the AED will charge to the appropriate energy level and advise the operator to deliver a shock.  Anyone can, at their discretion, provide voluntary assistance to victims of medical emergencies.  The extent to which these individuals respond shall be appropriate to their training and experience.  These responders are encouraged to contribute to emergency response only to the extent they are comfortable.  The emergency medical response of these individuals may include CPR, AED, or medical first-aid.
