WakeMed Campus Police and Public Safety

Jurisdiction and responsibilities

WakeMed Campus Police and Public Safety serves the health system’s employees, patients and visitors. The official page identifies Raleigh Campus, Cary Hospital, North Hospital and the Apex, Brier Creek and Garner healthplexes among the sites with police/security contact arrangements. These are locations of one health-system service, not six independently counted departments.

How the agency is organized

The health system publishes a centralized communications route and separates emergency from non-emergency police or security assistance. Its service and FAQ pages address campus access and safety concerns. The description does not equate every public-safety or security employee with a sworn police officer.

Agency history and local context

The reviewed sources establish the current health-system police and public-safety identity but do not verify a founding date. Historical hospital name changes are not assigned to the police agency without specific evidence.

Official records and officer resources

For non-emergency police or security concerns, WakeMed publishes 919-350-8171. Emergency assistance has a separate published number, 919-350-3333. Use the hospital’s current campus-safety instructions for the relevant facility, including access and visitor requirements.

Blank or unavailable values remain “Not published.” Participating agencies and reporting scope vary. Campus figures concern the reporting institution; a city name does not expand them to all local residents. Read the data definitions and limitations.
