Building Access

The building access control system (Lenel S2) is equipped with security features that allow for a safer teaching and learning environment. Classrooms, faculty and administrative offices are located on the second floor of the building, which is accessible through stairways or an elevator. Once on the second floor, a badge is required to enter classrooms if using stairways. The Clinical Simulation and Learning Center (CSLC) is located in Suite 121 on the first floor. While access to faculty and administrative offices is via badges, appointments continue to be required of students and guests prior to accessing this section of the building.

The Library is located on the second floor and is unlocked daily when campus opens by the campus security officer. The Ions Conference Center is a multi-purpose room that is located on the first floor and is often used as a classroom.

Campus security is very important and access control is the line that protects our most important assets: associates and students.

  1. All associates and students must wear and ALWAYS visibly display their identification badges while located on the SCHS campus.
  2. Associates and students shall identify themselves to front desk/security personnel when entering the building as well as to faculty, if requested.
  3. Guests must sign in and out at the Security desk. Guests should wait in the Security desk area/lobby for the appropriate functional unit associate to accompany them during their visit.
  4. If you see a new or unfamiliar face around the building, please introduce yourself so that we can get to know one another better.
  5. Do NOT allow anyone to enter the building without using their badge; this allows us to be able to account for everyone in the event of a building emergency. Anyone who does not have their badge with them should sign in at the Security desk.

The purpose of these best practices is to enable associates and students to identify one another and allow the SCHS Campus Building Emergency Team to quickly identify unauthorized individuals on the SCHS campus in the event of a critical incident.

PARKING

As tenants within a large medical complex, SCHS enjoys ample parking to accommodate faculty/staff, students, and visitors. Parking spaces are defined as shown on the below map to govern parking between all tenants utilizing spaces all around the medical center. Students and faculty/staff must follow the below parking guidelines (see map) or risk being towed at their expense. Overnight parking is prohibited. If you have a disabled vehicle, please make arrangements to remove your vehicle prior to close of business hours or contact Campus Security to make a different arrangement.

It is the responsibility of the vehicle owner to take precautions against vehicle theft. SCHS assumes no responsibility or liability for any vehicle parked on SCHS property. The owner should lock their vehicle at all times and refrain from leaving valuables in plain sight. Motorcycles, motor scooters and mopeds are subject to the same parking requirements.

SCHS parking for faculty/staff and students is delimited on the below map.

SAFTEY AND EMERGENCY PROCEDURES

For your safety and that of our entire campus community, please be sure your emergency contact information is up to date in your Student Portal and review the Safety policies available on the College’s website (https://www.schs.edu/students/policies) in the Administrative - Safety section. Be on the lookout in the next few weeks for a reminder communication about our SafeColleges application, a platform with important training modules around safety and security.

The SCHS Emergency Management and Evacuation Procedures (EMEP) is an emergency preparedness document intended to provide useful information that ensures the safety and protection of associates, students, and visitors during fire, severe weather, loss of utilities and other emergencies at the 430 Clairmont Court building. All students, faculty, and associates are encouraged to review and familiarize themselves with the EMEP as it outlines the resources, procedures, and roles each SCHS community member plays in keeping our campus safe in the event of an on-campus emergency. The College’s ability to respond to campus emergencies is enhanced by a Public Announcement (PA) system, which is audible throughout campus when activated.

The EMEP is regularly updated to adapt to evolving emergency preparedness best practices. To view the most recent draft of the EMEP, please do the following:  

STEP 1: Log into Blackboard

STEP 2: Navigate to any available Blackboard course

STEP 3: Once in the course, select College Resources 

STEP 4: View the EMEP in the Global Resources folder
