Emergency
In case of emergency
Call 911 immediately in the event of a serious or life-threatening emergency.
If someone can't walk, is unconscious or if they have severe symptoms such as difficulty breathing, chest pain, etc., don't hesitate to call 911. Don't waste time trying to get the individual to Student Health Services for evaluation as we have limited emergency resources. Newton County Emergency Medical Service (EMS) will provide crisis care and transportation to the hospital emergency room. EMS will request the following information when a call is placed to them:
- Person's name and exact location
- Reason service is needed
- Name and phone number of the caller
- Please contact Campus Police at 770-784-8377 to escort emergency services quickly to person in need.
For after hours/weekend urgent medical concerns
If you have an urgent medical problem or concern and can't wait until Student Health Service is open, view the options from our After Hours/Weekend Care advice page.
Monday-Friday 9am - 5pm (when classes are in session) If you have a medical emergency, call 911.
