Healthcare Security Services
Ensuring Safety in Healthcare Environments with Expert Security Solutions
Rocky Mountain Protective Service offers specialized healthcare security services designed to protect patients, staff, and facilities in medical environments. Our trained professionals understand the unique challenges of healthcare settings, providing a secure atmosphere where care can thrive.
RMPS will fully integrate with your company EOC committees to ensure you will meet the stringent requirements of staffing, technology, and education. Additionally, we work with you hand in hand to develop the necessary reporting and management plans for regulatory agencies. Client solutions directors are available to help with every detail, including risk assessments, safe building design, etc.
The safety of a medical facility is highly dependent on stringently controlling points of entry from unauthorized access. We incorporate foot and mobile patrols and provide personnel at perimeters to ensure the protection of staff, patients, and visitors. Using evidence-based risk indicators, as well as experience and knowledge gained by serving hundreds of hospitals, we can confidently assign the type and number of security officers your facility requires.
The best healthcare guest experiences are those that feel welcoming and intuitive rather than intimidating. We pay special attention to this when we design checkpoints (with and without metal detectors) and set up systems to provide necessary directions. Management is our more formal visitor screening process, whereby personnel verifies identification, electronically records names in databases, and provides temporary photo-ID badges.
RMPS is well-versed in providing security training across the entire spectrum of the healthcare system (stand-alone emergency rooms, urgent care, medical offices, ambulatory surgical centers, home health agencies, long-term care, and skilled nursing facilities). We provide comprehensive preparedness training to hospital staff using drills and exercises to simulate scenarios such as active shooter and infant abductions. We also offer our expertise in contemporary industry concerns such as home health security threats and managing prisoner patients and provide the tools for effective threat response to patient-generated violence.
For medical facilities that desire to maintain and employ their own security workforce but want to add a high level of expertise, RMPS provides experienced healthcare security leadership to a client’s in-house security workforce.
In comparison to a traditional “security service” that focuses primarily on the risk of fall, RMPS patient monitoring program provides specifically-trained medical facility security officers to monitor aggressive, violent, disoriented, suicidal, or substance-impaired patients. It requires special expertise and care to avoid threatening their security or the wellbeing of others. Patient monitoring is available as a fixture of the overall security program or as an add-on.
RMPS officers:
-
Monitoring of high-risk patients anywhere within a facility
-
Calm, de-escalate, and redirect patients
-
Prevent patients from falling or pulling out IV and monitoring lines
-
Report potentially dangerous situations
-
Monitor patients by on-site design or through our Security Operations Center
-
Our Security Operations Center (SOC) is a fully integrated central communications hub that integrates with any security program a client has in place. It supports and coordinates the response of security personnel, officers, supervisors, and vehicle patrols. It enables staff and visitors to share information. In short, it consolidates incident detection, monitoring, and response activities and increases officer response times.

RMPS Special Security Officer (SSO) certification program elevates security and effective officer engagement through specialized training courses. Hand-selected SSOs receive enhanced equipment (including electrical conducted weapons) and are trained in up to 40 hours of online courses, classroom, role play, and practice sessions. SSO modules include:
-
Cultural Integration and Security where they focus on strengthening communication skills
-
Customer Service teaches exceptional customer service in the healthcare environment.
-
Basic Taser and Handcuff Training provides the operational theories and practical training to reasonably, safely, and effectively operate TASER Electronic Control Devices (ECDs). The handcuff portion explores the physical techniques and justification for the application of handcuffs while exercising powers to arrest as a security officer.
-
Crisis Intervention Training provides education about mental illness for first responders. Learners enhance their communication and teamwork skills as well as the development of the initial approach, assessment, and intervention techniques when dealing with individuals afflicted with various forms of mental illness.
-
Advanced Firearms Training: This two-day program builds on what is learned from the Basic Firearms Course. Classes include Advanced Tactical Skills, Advanced Threat Awareness, Verbal De-escalation for Armed First Responders, and Defensive Techniques. Topics help officers develop their safety and survival skills, officer patrol techniques, incident/scene management, critical incident response, use of force and case law, equipment inspection, vehicle contacts and searches, and suspicious package recognition.
The end result is an SSO who provides a heightened personal influence and security impact, optimizing a healthcare facility's ability to offer a safe experience to its customers.-
