The switchboard is our main communication center. Dial "8911" to report an emergency. Tell the operator who you are, where you are calling from, and the nature of the emergency. In the event of fire or smoke, please stay calm and listen carefully to the instructions of your nurse. Fire alarms will sound in a large area around the location of the problem and fire doors will close automatically. Our staff tests equipment and practices fire safety drills on a routine basis.
