About Lake Campus Safety
The Wright State Lake Campus Police Department takes pride in building and maintaining positive relationships within Mercer County and the Lake community and is an extension of the Dayton-Campus Wright State Police Department. The goal of the Lake Campus Police Department is to make the community safer and provide excellent service to the Lake Campus. While the Lake Campus Police Department is an extension of the Dayton campus, our mission and programming are the same, which is to provide a safe and secure campus for the students, staff, and faculty. Please take the time to read about the services and essentials that the Lake Campus Police Department provides.
Automated External Defibrillator
As a part of Wright State University's overall emergency planning, an Automated External Defibrillator Program was established in 2016. AEDs are strategically placed across both the Dayton and Lake campuses to have an AED applied to a victim of cardiac arrest within five minutes.
Many of the AEDs are housed in wall-mounted storage cabinets for ease of access. The wall-mounted storage cabinets are alarmed and, when opened, will send a signal to the Public Safety Service Center to alert first responders to a potential emergency. Public Safety also carries AEDs with them as a part of the first response.
All Wright State DPS police officers are trained in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and AED usage.
The Environmental Health & Safety (EHS) Department oversees the AED at both the Dayton and Lake campuses. Monthly inspections are conducted by Facilities Casualty Prevention personnel.
Report potential cardiac emergencies
Dayton Campus by calling 911 from any campus telephone and telling the dispatcher you are at the location of the cardiac emergency. To contact University Police from a cell phone, dial 937-775-2111.
Note: If 911 is dialed from a cell phone, you will be connected with Off-Campus emergency responders.
Naloxone (Narcan)
The Department of Public Safety in partnership with the Wright State University Mental Health Taskforce and the Ohio Department of Health’s Project DAWN (Deaths Avoidance With Naloxone) has implemented a Naloxone Program at the Dayton Campus.
Naloxone (commonly known as Narcan) is a medication that when given to a victim of an opioid overdose (heroin, fentanyl, or prescription pain medication), can reverse the effects of the overdose. When administered during an overdose, Naloxone blocks the effects of the opioid on the brain and can quickly restore breathing. Naloxone, if given to a person who is not experiencing an overdose, is harmless. Naloxone can be administered by any trained person.
Naloxone cabinets have been placed at various locations at the Dayton Campus. Public Safety also carries Naloxone with them as a part of the first response.
The Environmental Health & Safety (EH&S) Department oversees the Naloxone program at both the Dayton and Lake campuses. Monthly inspections are conducted by Facilities Casualty Prevention personnel.
Public Safety provides training to the members of the Wright State community on how to use and administer Naloxone. All participants who receive training by Public Safety is provided with a Naloxone kit for free. Anyone interested in becoming Naloxone trained can contact Public Safety through the Campus Safety Series.
