Security Report & Disclosure of Crime Statistics

Clery Disclosure Distribution

Institutions of higher education, which receive federal financial assistance, are required to provide current and prospective students, and employees with an annual report that identifies policies and procedures related to campus security. This document is prepared to increase awareness of current policies, procedures, and practices related to campus security. This report is prepared from information provided by Public Safety and the statistics and information are gathered from crimes reported on campus and the Arlington Police Department.

Timely Warning and Emergency Notification

Victims or witnesses may report emergency situations or crimes on an anonymous, confidential basis by contacting Arlington Police Department at 817-459-5700.

Security and Access to Campus Facilities

Students are required to use the side door versus the front door to The Neighborhood Doctor, which leads to the patient waiting area. After hours, classrooms and other campus facilities also require a key or must be opened by a faculty member.

Facilities are maintained to ensure safety and security. Students and employees are encouraged to report any security or maintenance needs to the Arlington Police Department at (817) 459-5700. During regular business hours, the School Director will immediately be notified to ensure that all maintenance requests are resolved in a timely manner. If after hours, the Arlington Police Department will immediately address any security.

Public Safety Department

In an effort to provide for the safety and security of students and employees, Arlington Medical Institute maintains a cooperative relationship with all local public safety agencies including the Arlington and Mansfield Police Departments. The Arlington & Mansfield police officers have the powers to arrest when appropriate. Alternatives to arrest may be considered when the public safety of the campus community is not at risk. The annual disclosure of crime statistics is prepared by Public Safety as a result of information gathered from campus incident reports and the Arlington Police Department reports of police actions.

Reporting Crimes

Arlington Medical Institute students, employees and others are encouraged to promptly report all criminal activity and emergencies to the Arlington Police Department (817) 459-5700. In emergency situations, 911 should be called first, followed by an immediate notification to the Arlington Police Department.

Reducing Security Risks

Arlington Medical students are encouraged to be responsible for their own security. It is important to be aware of possible risks. The following tips may help you protect yourself from security risks.

➢ Trust your instincts. If you feel unsafe in a situation, go with your gut. If you feel uncomfortable or something doesn’t feel right, leave and get to a safe place immediately.

➢ Protect your location on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Foursquare and etc. If someone you don’t know or trust ask you to go somewhere alone, let him or her know that you would rather stay with the group. Use any excuse you can think of to get out of a difficult situation.

➢ Be aware of your surroundings. Knowing where you are and who is around you may help you to find a way to get out of a bad situation.

➢ Try to avoid isolated areas such as alley in back of the school. It is more difficult to get help if no one is around.

➢ Walk with purpose. Even if you don’t know where you are going, act like you do.

➢ Try not to load yourself down with packages or bags as this can make you appear more vulnerable.

➢ Make sure your cell phone is with you and charged and that you have cab money.

➢ Don't allow yourself to be isolated with someone you don’t trust or someone you don’t know.

➢ Avoid putting music headphones in both ears so that you can be more aware of your surroundings, especially if you are walking alone.

➢ Avoid wearing expensive jewelry while walking in public places. The value of gold is high and criminals may take a “snatch and grab” opportunity.

Sex Offense Policy, Procedures, and Programs

If you are a victim of sexual assault, your first priority should be to get to a place of safety and obtain the necessary medical treatment. Time is a critical factor for evidence collection and preservation. Report the incident in a timely manner.

Any student, employee or visitor who is the victim of a forcible or non-forcible sex offense should contact the Arlington Police Department at (817) 459-5700. If requested, the Arlington Police will assist the person in reporting the incident. Filing a police report will not obligate a victim to prosecute, nor will it subject the victim to scrutiny or judgmental opinions from officers. Filing a police report will: ensure that a victim of sexual assault receives the necessary medical treatment and tests, at no expense to the victim; and

provide an opportunity for collection of evidence helpful in prosecution, which cannot be obtained later.

Victims of a sexual crime should make every effort to save anything that might contain the perpetrator’s DNA, therefore a victim should not: take a bath or shower; or use the restroom; or change clothes; or comb hair; or clean up the crime scene; or move anything the offender may have touched.

Counseling and Safe Help Line

➢ Counseling for mental health or other student services is available for crisis victims at the GCU Campus Health & Wellness Center. If requested, after an alleged sex offense, a change in the academic and living situations will be provided when reasonably available.

➢ Brochures and other handouts related to awareness and prevention of physical or sexual violence are given during the orientation.

Both the accused and the accuser will be notified of the outcome of the proceedings in the same manner and in the same time frame. Arlington Medical Institute will, upon written request, disclose to the alleged victim of a crime of violence, or a non-forcible sex offense, the report on the results of any disciplinary proceeding conducted against a student who is the alleged perpetrator of such crime or offense.
