5.5.8 Corrective Actions The nature and simplicity of the WPI facility is such that routine review of emergency actions are adequate.
The facility has a sprinkler system and is equipped with wall mounted fire extinguishers, a
wall mounted first aid kit and an eye wash station.
Emergency contact with security can be initiated in a variety of ways from a number of locations throughout the facility.
Personnel are instructed to contact Security immediately via appropriate means in the event of any kind of accident to personnel or if any potentially hazardous condition arises.
5.5.9 Contamination Control Measures Signs posted throughout Washburn Laboratory instruct the occupants on proper procedures in case of an evacuation alarm.
Persons having any reason to believe they might be contaminated report directly to Security where they can be monitored and either decontaminated, if the incident is minor, or transported to Worcester City Hospital if their condition warrants this action.
Worcester City Hospital has confirmed that they have procedures in place to admit and treat persons contaminated with radioactive materials.
