In Case of Fire

We take the threat of fire seriously and continually train our staff in emergency procedures. When a fire alarm sounds:

• Please follow the instructions from staff members and stay where you are until further notice.
• Do not attempt to use the elevators or stairways, or transport patients on your own.
• When the alarm sounds, the emergency doors close automatically. Only emergency services personnel and designated Baycrest staff members will be allowed to pass through these doors.
• Remain calm, stay where you are, listen to announcements and take direction from the staff members in charge.

We ask patients, family members and other visitors to familiarize themselves with all fire exits (located at both ends of each floor and illuminated with EXIT signs) and fire alarm pull stations on each floor (located near exits).
