    Personal safety

    Health and safety regulations for Games venues, instructions on safety signs, and requirements for Games personnel regarding safety must be observed.

    Main health and safety advice for venues:

    • cross roads carefully;
    • avoid walking on slippery surfaces (wet floors, ice);
    • do not cross the barriers, do not climb over or crawl under them;
    • do not climb on structures – barriers, lamp posts, equipment etc., do not stand on seats or benches;
    • when in sports venues always try to remember where the closest emergency exit is;
    • do not smoke except in designated areas;
    • do not light fires or use open flames;
    • do not block pathways, do not stand in the aisles or block entrances or exits.

    Health

    • dress warmly and avoid exposure to the cold, remember that the weather in the mountains can change very quickly;
    • try to limit your contact with people with symptoms of a cold (cough, running nose etc);
    • if you need medical help while in a sports venue, go to the medical station in person, telephone a doctor or ask a member of Games staff or a police officer to call a doctor over the radio.

    If you witness an accident or someone is feeling unwell:

    • Do not try to give first aid unless you are trained to do so.

    Call a doctor, inform any (nearby) member of Games staff or a police officer and follow their instructions.

    In the event of a fire:

    • Set off the fire alarm immediately (if there is one nearby);
    • Inform people who are in danger;
    • Inform any member of Games staff or a police officer;
    • Leave the area through the nearest emergency exit and exit the building.

    Evacuation:

    If evacuation is necessary you may be notified in the following ways:

    • the fire alarm;
    • the venue's information system (scoreboards, loud speakers etc);
    • be informed in person by a member of Games staff;
    • be informed by the emergency services (the police, the Ministry of Emergency Situations, or others).

    Evacuation procedure:

    • do not panic, do not run, help other people to stay calm;
    • walk quickly to the nearest emergency exit;
    • do not use lifts or escalators;
    • if possible, help others, especially people with disabilities;
    • follow all instructions from the management, the emergency services and staff helping with the evacuation;
    • go to the designated assembly point.

    In the event of a crush or panic:

    • Choose the safest place, as far as possible from the middle of the crowd, the stands, rubbish bins, boxes, unattended bags, glass windows and barriers;
    • Take off your tie, scarf and other items which could cause strangulation;
    • Let go of anything in your hands, bend your arms and fasten all buttons on your clothes;
    • Do not grab onto trees, columns or barriers, try to stay on your feet;
    • If you fall, roll into a ball on your side, keep you legs in and try to get up in the direction the crowd is moving;
    • Avoid people acting aggressively, do not get involved in confrontations;
    • Try to get out of the crowd.

    If you discover any incident or situation which puts human health or lives at risk:

    • immediately leave the danger zone;
    • inform any nearby member of Games staff or a police officer and follow their instructions.

    During the Games the safety of food products will be taken very seriously. At the sports venues fresh and natural food products, which have passed sanitation and accreditation procedures, will be available.

    Each sports venue will have a medical station, clearly signposted. Medical stations help visitors to the Games obtain medical help quickly and effectively.

    Mobile first aid teams will also be working at the sports venues. Special medical transport will be assigned to the teams. If comprehensive medical services are required, transport to a hospital can be arranged.

    Foreign citizens visiting Russia must have medical insurance. Before traveling to Russia you must ascertain the policy conditions of your insurance company to obtain an insurance policy.

    A lot of efforts have been made to minimize the impact of the Games on Sochi's unique natural environment. Our environmental conservation principles have created a new approach to recycling and supporting clean energy and nature in the south of Russia. We would be grateful if you also help us to keep Sochi clean.
