-**In Case of Emergency**\\ 
-**1.** Notify the supervisor immediately if they are in the vicinity. \\ 
-**2.** Dial **88** or **911** (direct line). \\  
-**Note:** Be sure to mention to the operator the room number (ETB 431) first. \\ 
-Please note that our lab phone is a direct line, so you can dial "911" directly but not "88" directly.\\ 
-First Aid Kit is located on the top right shelf on the full-length wall shelving unit.
