If you have a physical limitation that prohibits you from using the stairs, please contact 581-3333, give them your location, and ask that they send an elevator to pick you up.
In the event of any type of building emergency (fire, severe weather, bomb, etc.), occupants will be notified through the Emergency Notification System. Please listen carefully to the message, as it will tell you specifically what you need to do.
When you first arrive at the Philcade Building, please familiarize yourself with the building evacuation routes and destinations located in the coffee bar of each floor.

In schools, hospitals, factories, or shopping centers, go to interior rooms or halls on the lowest floor. Stay away from glass enclosed places or areas with wide-span roofs such as auditoriums or warehouses.
If you are in a car or mobile home, leave it and go to a substantial structure or designated tornado shelter.
If no suitable structure is nearby, lie flat in the nearest ditch or depression and use your hands to cover your head.
