Medical Assistance
In the airport, emergencies are handled by the Operations Division. To call for assistance, dial 801-575-2405, 801-575-2911 or "0" on a paging phone.
Automated Emergency Defibrillators (AEDs) and Emergency Trauma Bleeding Control Kits are located throughout the airport. Emergency Trauma Bleeding Control Kits are located inside the AED cabinets in the Terminal and Concourse public areas. They can be accessed by the traveling public and all airport employees. Their intended use is for severe bleeding situations. Naloxone (Narcan) is also available inside the AED cabinets for emergency use. Click here for more information on their locations.
Salt Lake City International Airport also utilizes the LUCAS 2 Chest Compression Device, located on the Airport Medical Carts on Concourse A and Concourse B.
