When approaching a situation where a student is believed to be under the influence of alcohol, it is important to remember that CIA staff are not medical professionals and are not trained to determine if a person is intoxicated. An alcohol intoxication emergency exists when the following signs are present:

●     Student is vomiting or dry heaving

●     Student is unable to answer simple questions, such as their name and room number

●     Limp and sleepy, unable to hold a conversation

●     Passed out

●     Will not wake up, still breathing

●     Will not wake up, not breathing

Immediate Action: RA contacts UCPD/CPD.

Secondary Action: RA contacts the Pro-Staff On-Call to notify them of the situation. Inform the Pro-Staff On-Call of any bodily fluids that may be involved.

Third Action: Pro-Staff On-Call responds to the scene to assess the situation if the scenario is ongoing or has a significant impact on the community. If the incident results in a medical transport, enact the medical transport protocol:

●     Immediate Action: The most senior staff member present will ask CPD/UCPD/EMS the name of the student being transported, the reason for transport, and the name of the receiving facility.

●     Secondary Action: The RA notifies the Pro-Staff On Call for follow-up.

Reporting Action: The RA and Pro-Staff documents the incident with an Incident Report. Pro-Staff will also submit a CARE Report.
