Healthcare Facilities
Hospitals and healthcare facilities
are some of the nation’s most
active public places and because
most try to maintain an open-door
policy, they are frequent targets
of criminal activity if left unprotected.
Wackenhut works with all levels of
healthcare facilities to create
security plans that fit their unique
budget, facility layout, and specific
security needs. Wackenhut
programs are designed to look for
new ways to address specific healthcare needs in a cost
effective manner. Using the latest technology, Wackenhut
officers can help prevent unauthorized persons from entering
the facilities to reduce crimes of opportunity by tracking
and identifying all visitors with a state-of-the-art visitor
management system.
Wackenhut is fully versed in maintaining the environment of
care standards for Joint Commission on Accreditation of
Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) and Healthcare Insurance
Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) reporting.
Wackenhut understands the importance of being prepared
for JCAHO audits, particularly those inspections that come
with little warning, leaving healthcare facility accreditations
vulnerable. It is vital that the security portion of the
JCAHO score is flawless.
Wackenhut’s Custom Protection Officer® Program is the
perfect fit for the healthcare environment. With over 48
years of combined service and experience in hospital
environments and an average JCAHO Evaluation of 97
percent, Wackenhut is clearly the most prepared security
company to protect your healthcare facility.
