Night Security

There is 24/7 reception in the residence hall as well as campus security and police. We also have night supervision every night from staff.

Welfare and Medical

Each staff member on the team is First Aid and CPR trained and so can assist with minor medical emergencies. If there are significant medical needs we will transport the student to the nearest doctor or hospital. The student/parent/agent is responsible for any off-site transport and medical costs in these cases. Residence Advisors and all staff will supervise and ensure the students are eating well and healthy, participating and happy.
