In the event of a reported emergency in the building, it may be that evacuation is not always necessary for persons with special needs or disabilities. The individual with special needs and/or disabilities should contact the Suffolk University Police at (617)573-8111 for information and instructions.

Floor wardens will notify emergency response personnel of any other non-ambulatory individuals or persons with special needs and/or disability they know about who are unable to exit the building unassisted.  Transporting of individuals with special needs and/or disability up or down stairwells should be avoided without the assistance of emergency response personnel.  Unless imminent life-threatening conditions exist in the immediate area occupied by a non-ambulatory or disabled person, relocation of the individual should be limited to an area of refuge on the same floor separated by a set of closed fire doors preferably in close proximity to an evacuation stairwell.
