Request Brown University Emergency Medical Services (BEMS) at 401-863-4111 for campus emergency care and medical assistance, available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Reasons to call EMS include but are not limited to:

• Difficulty breathing
• Major bleeding
• Obvious major injury
• Injury that impairs mobility
• Loss of consciousness or unresponsiveness
• Diminished consciousness or mental confusion
• Severe pain — of sudden onset, of unknown cause, or of long duration

The BEMS ambulance will respond and provide prehospital care and transportation to the hospital or Health Services as indicated. In the event that BEMS is already engaged, backup response is coordinated with a private EMS and/or the Providence Fire Department EMS.

Brown EMS does not currently have a monitored contact form or email; all relevant service updates will be posted on this website, and students who are interested in volunteering with Brown EMS are encouraged to check Today at Brown for information about onboarding to our campus volunteer roles.
