Tri 3– Week 2

Room Condition Reports Every resident is required to complete a Room Condition Report so that we

have a record of the condition of your room upon your check-in.

It is in your best interests to complete and submit this, as upon your

checkout, your room will be inspected and any damage (even small marks

on walls) will be charged to you.

If you are yet to complete a

Room Condition Report, please

come and collect a copy from resi reception.

Ensure that you complete and

sign the form, and return it to

reception by 3pm Wednesday 26th November.

If we have not received your form by then, we will assume that you consider

your room is in excellent condition, therefore any damage we find upon your check out will be charged to you.

If you are new to Deakin you would now know that smoking on campus is

banned, further information is available on the Smoke Free Deakin website.

Deakin Medical Centres provide FREE Nicotine

Replacement Therapy including, gum, lozenges,

patches and spray. NRT is not for everyone wishing to

QUIT but for those people who wish to manage

cravings and work towards quitting or reducing the

amount they smoke this can be an option.

Free hypnotherapy sessions are still available to also

assist you to QUIT. Make an appointment online to

see the Campus Nurse or drop into Student Life (Building B) to have a chat.

All the Campus nurses are QUIT Educators and can provide support,

information and a non-judgemental and supportive approach.
