Emergency Medical Procedures

Emergency medical assistance should be obtained by dialing 911 for any individual believed to be seriously incapacitated by a potentially life-threatening condition. A College employee should remain with the individual to provide necessary assistance until professional help arrives. If the individual is thought to be ill or injured, but the condition does not appear to be life-threatening, the Ivy Tech Community College employee should offer to call family, friends or 911 for the individual. The name of an “Emergency Contact Person” may be on file with the Registrar’s Office in A133, (812-330-6016) if the student has completed this information on his/her Course Reservation Form. College employees should not offer medical treatment, diagnostic services or transportation services to individuals for life-threatening or non life-threatening conditions. The employee should encourage the individual to seek advice from his/her own health care provider. Ivy Tech Community College employees should not refer ill or injured faculty, staff, students, or visitors to the Nursing Program offices or to the Nursing faculty for diagnostic services or treatment. Any accident or injury involving students should be reported on the “Student Incident/Accident/Exposure Report Form.” These forms are available in the Word Processing Center, the Library, and the Main Lobby Reception Desk.

Lost and Found

The Lost and Found will be in the Word Processing Center (WPC) on the second floor in A223. If a student comes in after the WPC is closed, the staff at the Main Lobby Reception Desk will provide the student with information as to how to contact the WPC. If an item is found and the student cannot come in during WPC business hours, the item will be left at the Main Lobby Reception desk for them to pick up.  Books, keys, jackets, and other things are often found and will be kept for a few weeks. Unclaimed items with be disposed of afterward. Food items found will be thrown away. To be safe, mark items belonging to you with your name. When found and given to College staff members, we will try to get in touch with you to let you know your belongings have been found.

Drug and Alcohol-Free Policy

The purpose of the Drug and Alcohol-Free College Policy is to maintain a safe and productive teaching and learning environment and to be in compliance with the Drug-Free Workplace Act of 1988 and the Drug-Free Schools and Communities Act of 1989. As part of the effort to create a drug-free campus, Ivy Tech Community College believes that employees and students should be educated about the physical and emotional health risks associated with the misuse of alcohol and drugs, treatment programs available in Indiana, and the possible legal consequences of drug and alcohol abuse. Information on the Drug-Free Awareness Program is available in the office of the Dean of Student Affairs. more...
