through the halls, checking on both equipment and
residents
We address issues that are encountered during a
round or communicated to us through residents or
phone calls from you or people working the desk
before your shift
4. How We Can Help You
Since Night Staff doesn’t necessarily live inside the
residence halls and may not be familiar with the
location of everything, it is up to the RAs to assist
you when dealing with unfamiliar areas.
5. Getting to Know You

Night Staff when they arrive.
RAs working 8 a.m. desk shifts should greet Night
Staff when they take over.
