As an option, they can add personal telephone numbers and personal email addresses. Notifications are sent by text message, email message, and voice message.
An individual may register up to three email addresses and three telephone numbers including cell phone, pager, and landline numbers. Alerts provide current emergency information related to the SIU School of Medicine Springfield campus and immediate areas. RAVE(MedAlert) alerts subscribers to an emergency situation and action to be taken.
