Medical Emergency

In the event of sudden illness or an accident with victims, call 112 (National Emergency Number) directly. The Emergency Central Operator will ask for information about the victim, which will enable a quick and effective response and the dispatch of appropriate emergency services. After calling 112, you should immediately contact the Security Officer - #115 (from any internal extension within FEUP's network) or (+351) 91 22 333 77 - so that they can take the necessary steps to send FEUP first responders to the location and facilitate access for the ambulance.

Security team

The Security Team is made up of staff from FEUP, the University of Porto, and other entities providing services at FEUP, all of whom are adequately trained and responsible for implementing and enforcing safety measures in line with the Internal Safety Plan. The team members are divided into various groups: Evacuation Teams, Fire Brigade, First Responders, and Technical Teams.

In case of an emergency or during a safety drill, follow the instructions of the Evacuation Coordinators and cooperate with the team - they will be identifiable by their vests.
