The University of Nebraska Police and Public Safety Department offers several resources regarding the issue of the Active Shooter.
The Behavioral Review Team (BRT) is a multidisciplinary team that meets on a regular basis to review and respond to reports concerning student behavior, including behavior that may pose a threat of self-harm or a threat to the university community.
See Something! Say Something!
UNO has adopted the run, hide, fight system for responding to an active shooter incident, as presented by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.
In this one-hour presentation, public safety officers review the tactical options of Run, Hide and Fight by citing actual case studies of incidents, as well as, the university response to these incidents.
All-Hazard Assessments
Upon request, the University of Nebraska Police & Public Safety Department (UNPPSD) will do all-hazards assessments of offices, classrooms, and work areas on university property. This assessment addresses threats that have the greatest risk in this area, and the unique advantages and disadvantages of the areas that are evaluated.
Funding was obtained from the Tri-County Homeland Security Working Group, through a State Homeland Security Grant, for the UNO Department of Public Safety to participate in the STOP THE BLEED® program.
The Hartford Consensus was formed to find ways to reduce fatalities at active shooter and mass casualty incidents. It was found that the primary loss of life in these incidents was the loss of blood. The American College of Surgeons took this information and developed the STOP THE BLEED® program.
In this one-hour course, participants are instructed on methods to stop bleeding at active shooter and mass casualty incidents.
If you are interested in arranging training or learning more about these programs for your group please contact the Department of Emergency Managament at emergencymgmt@unomaha.edu.
