Safety, insurance and emergencies
Insurance coverage
We advise all participants to subscribe travel insurance with accident and health coverage. Some insurance policies may also cover tuition fees in case of withdrawal from the courses as a result of illness or accident. Please check also the insurance cover of your credit card.
In case of emergency
All participants must have their own accident and medical insurance coverage. Should you need medical treatment, call your insurance company so they can indicate how to proceed. There is a public Primary Care center two blocks away from the campus (CAP Vila Olímpica). You may also go to the emergency room at the nearest hospital (Hospital del Mar), also close to the school, by the seaside.
112 is the phone number for medical, rescue, fire or police emergencies.
Safety in the city
Beware of pickpockets on public transport and public spaces. Never leave your belongings unattended and be wary of distractions. For more information on security advice can be found on this website.
