Anyone experiencing a non-emergency situation while on the Davis campus can call Health 34. This includes students, staff members, faculty members, community members, visitors and others who aren’t affiliated with campus.
Is Health 34 the same as 911? Or the Police or Fire Department?
No. If you're experiencing an emergency, call 911 immediately.
Health 34 is a new addition to campus safety resources, with an emphasis on minor medical care, crisis prevention, and compassionate mental health support.
By delivering this type of care to our community on campus, Health 34 will in many cases help prevent situations from getting to a point where they need a higher level of emergency care.
Health 34 also offers support for people in the aftermath of a crisis— a vulnerable and lonely time when people need help that isn't typically provided by existing emergency support resources.
Why is it called Health 34?
Health 34 is delivered by UC Davis Fire Station #34 and provides services that support the overall health and wellbeing of our community.
We partner with existing resources across campus and throughout the region.
