Hospital and Healthcare Security, Seventh Edition reflects the current state of healthcare security, particularly in data security and privacy, patient-generated violence, new technologies, and regulatory changes. The book explains the basics and higher expertise concerns, such as the roles of design, emergency management, and policy. Conveying a wide spectrum of topics in an easy-to-comprehend format, it provides a thorough understanding of how the modern healthcare security program should be structured, resourced, and integrated around the principles of people, processes, and technology. This industry-leading resource includes best practices, security master planning, and how to layer in protection philosophies in policies and procedures.

Due to rapid changes in violence in healthcare, regulatory requirements, litigation, accreditation standards, advancements in technology, and new healthcare security issues and topics, the new edition contains approximately 25-30% new and updated data and corresponding examples. It is deemed by healthcare executives, accrediting agencies, and industry associations to set the standard of care for healthcare security systems and programs.

Offers a quick-start section for hospital administrators who need an overview of security issues and best practices
Includes a sample request for proposals (RFP) for healthcare security services and incident report classifications, sample KPIs, security department reports, and an IAHSS Glossary of Terms
Clearly lays out general principles so readers can apply internationally recognized industry standards to their own environment
Presents new sections that address Enterprise Security Risk Management, Conducting Security Vulnerability Assessments, Video Surveillance, Remote Video Patrols, and more
