hospital security
Healthcare facility patrol
Hospital security refers to the personnel, systems, and protocols that protect patients, staff, visitors, and property within a healthcare facility.
Security staff monitor entrances, respond to disturbances, and manage access to sensitive areas like psychiatric units or pharmacies.
The term also covers broader protective measures: The hospital upgraded its security after a series of thefts.
Hospital security balances safety concerns against the need for an accessible, healing environment.
