Medical Emergency

In the event of a medical emergency:

• Call Emergency Medical Services (EMS), 911, or a private ambulance.  Tell them your floor and suite number.
• Call the Building Management Office at 212-878-1500.  Outside normal business hours, your call will be rerouted to the lobby desk, which is staffed 24 hours a day.  We will hold an elevator ready for the paramedic team.
• Post one person at the elevator to lead the medical team to the person in distress.

The Building Management Office is equipped with an Automated External Defibrillator that can re-start a victim’s heart in the event of a heart attack.  Several members of the building staff have earned their American Heart Association (AHA) completion card and are trained responders ready to take action should an emergency situation arise.
 
Emergency: Dial 911
 
Heart Attack
If it appears that an employee or a visitor is having a heart attack CALL 911, then contact the Building Management Office who will contact the building staff member trained in Automated External Defibrillators unit use.
 
Portable AED units have now been deployed in all SL Green buildings.  These devices are designed for emergency use for occupants who may suffer from Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) and only as a supplement to the City’s 911 emergency.
