Safety, Security and Sustainability

The Institute is located in a large metropolitan area. It is important to protect personal possessions and be aware of safety issues in an urban setting. The MGH Police, Security and Outside Services employ a well-trained security force to safeguard employees, patients, students, visitors, and property. Visit the MGH website for more information.

For medical and security emergencies, call MGH Police and Security at 617-726-5400. All non-security related issues should contact on-site security at 617-726-0528. Report all safety or security incidents to MGH Office of Police and Security for investigation.   Medical Alert Protocols are posted in all classroom/lab areas.

Through this partnership, the Institute develops and disseminates information and reports on safety, sensitive crimes and drug free campus and workplace resources. Through this process, the Institute complies with the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act and the Drug-Free Schools and Communities Act.  Every Fall semester the latest report will be available to the IHP Community via an email announcement.
