Geisinger Commonwealth School of Medicine

What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at Geisinger Commonwealth School of Medicine?

Campus safety at Geisinger Commonwealth School of Medicine should be evaluated through its current emergency procedures, reporting channels and annual security disclosures. Students may spend time both in the Scranton academic building and at clinical sites, where the responsible security team and emergency instructions can differ.

Federal Clery Act disclosures provide a defined set of reported campus crime statistics and safety policies. Their figures cover specified locations and reporting periods, not every incident a student might encounter. Before starting a rotation, students should know how to call for immediate help, how that site sends emergency alerts and where to report sexual misconduct or other safety concerns. The school's current annual security report and site-specific orientation materials are the appropriate places to confirm those procedures.
