Risk Management Minute

Reporting Injuries...Do you know how to report an injury? If you are injured or become aware of an injury to a student, student worker, faculty, staff, or visitor, contact Campus Safety (x8888) immediately. It is critical that appropriate medical attention is provided and that your supervisor/manager is also notified. Campus Safety has trained emergency medical personnel and onsite first aid equipment and can transport to River’s Edge Hospital & Urgent Care in Saint Peter. It is strongly recommended that any head, neck, eye or back injury be evaluated by a medical provider. In addition, it is important to follow up with the Director of Risk Management in Finance (x7494), 209 Carlson Administration Building, to complete any related workers’ compensation reporting requirements within 24 hours of the incident.
