2nd Annual Hospital & Healthcare Security & Safety Conference

Hospital and healthcare security personnel face a range of issues unique for security providers. Those involved in healthcare security deal with people from all walks of life and all facets of society, except these people (both patients and family/friends) are sick, stressed, angry, hurt, upset, worried, and more.

From large urban centres to isolated remote areas, from the ED to the ICU, hospital security staff see people at their worst and must be able to deal with them compassionately while still making the safety and security of staff and other patients a top priority.
