High demand at emergency departments is not a reliable indicator of the number of patients that will be sent to the Acute Admissions Unit. The LUMC has therefore developed an admissions predictor.

Leiden University has an extensive in-house emergency service (Bedrijfshulpverlening, BHV). An emergency response officer is an employee who has followed a training programme allowing him or her to assist others in case of minor incidents. Do you want to become an emergency response officer yourself?…

Faculties and other organisational units have their own emergency response coordinators (BHV). Below is an overview of all the University’s BHV coordinators, and a link to their full contact details.

In certain circumstances, you may be entitled to short or long-term special leave. Emergency leave is leave that you may take if you need to take immediate time off from work to deal with sudden emergencies or exceptional personal circumstances.
