OCDM Newsletter No. 6

Fire Safety

To enhance fire safety awareness among the University community, OCDM regularly organizes fire drills for campus users.  2 fire drills were held for hostels and the Main Campus on 19 November 2025 and 6 January 2026 respectively.  Following each drill, brief talks on fire safety were provided. Participants also had the opportunity to practise using fire extinguishers under the guidance of fire service personnel.  Campus buildings are equipped with a range of fire service installations, including fire bells, visual alarms, hose reels, sprinklers and emergency power systems, to reduce fire risk and enhance your safety. OCDM carries out regular inspections of these installations to properly maintain them in good working condition.

Automated External Defibrillator (AED)

To support the "AED Anywhere for Anyone" ("AAA") Programme promoted by Fire Services Department, Lingnan University equips AEDs at the designated locations on campus and satellite centres to protect lives of sudden cardiac arrest patients.

Indoor Air Quality Assurance

Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) has significant impact on our health and comfort. Good IAQ may help improve the health of people who work in the relevant buildings. Inspections are performed regularly to monitor the IAQ and measures would be proposed to improve the IAQ if necessary. Lingnan University participated the IAQ Certification Scheme for 15 years and got the “15 Years Commitment Award”. With the effort of the University in maintaining good hygiene in ventilation system and the room environment, our premises attained “Good Class” award under the IAQ Certification Scheme for years.
