Guidelines | List and Locations | Training Schedule

The Dept Safety Leader (DSL) at the Sonoma County Junior College District possesses Emergency Preparedness information and knowledge and is ready to provide direction in a time of an emergency.

This Emergency Preparedness Web site is a starting point for those wishing to understand the duties of the Dept Safety Leaders. Dept Safety Leaders are encouraged to add materials from this Web site to their existing resource of floor plans, evacuation charts, and quick reference guides.

Planning and preparedness are the two key elements to surviving a natural or human caused crisis. Anyone who has experienced large-scale disasters or even localized situations involving only a couple of people will admit their first feeling is of disbelief. That is OK. Their next thought should be, “What does my plan - what is the next step?” A plan will help you to move from disbelief to action.

The Dept Safety Leader program provides each Dept Safety Leader with simple guidelines that provide direction to your co-workers and students in the event of a crisis or disaster, thereby reducing the potential for injury, loss of life, and post traumatic worries.

Guidelines

  1. Place vest, whistle and a clipboard where it can be readily located in an emergency
  2. Once a month, review a page from the Emergency Preparedness Handbook
  3. Once a year, DSL members should take a preparedness class, such as a CERT or COPE Course to enhance their preparedness abilities both at work and home.

Responsibilities

  • Know recommended evacuation routes posted on the floors of each buildings, plus an alternate route, should an exit become blocked.
  • Be prepared to direct faculty, staff, and students to use these exits if you deem necessary or when directed by Administration, Police, Fire, or Medical staff.
  • Remember that situations as serious as a person firing a gun might be best handled by locking/blocking a door and staying hidden until the District's Active Shooter Response Team removes the threat.
  • Determine the locations of fire extinguishers, alarm pull stations, Emergency Preparedness Kit, Disater Response Kit, Emergency Preparedness Handbook, light sticks, flashlight, and stair chairs (for assisting people down steps).
  • Most important, call the 24/7 dispatch center at 527-1000 at the first sign of trouble so help will be on the way.

An Department Safety Leader is the first person in the chain of response from the initial crisis to a safe conclusion of the emergency by Police, Fire or Medical. Your job is to provide guidance and direction to allow people to leave an area safely.
