West Virginia School of Osteopathic Medicine

What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at West Virginia School of Osteopathic Medicine?

Students can evaluate WVSOM's campus-safety arrangements through its published security policies and annual security report. That report is the appropriate source for the institution's reported Clery Act crime statistics and descriptions of emergency procedures; its figures have defined reporting categories and should not be interpreted as a complete measure of personal safety.

Before arriving, students should identify how WVSOM sends emergency notifications, how to report an incident on campus and whom to contact for sexual-misconduct support. In an immediate emergency, call 911. Because clinical education occurs at other facilities, students should also learn each rotation site's reporting and emergency procedures rather than assuming main-campus procedures cover every location.
