How IAHSS’ Incident Data Initiative Will Improve Hospital Security
One of the best ways to convince healthcare facility leadership of the need for a security, emergency management, or life safety system upgrade or change is to provide examples and data from other similar types of campuses of the success or failure of a particular type of technology, policy, or solution.
However, when it comes to healthcare security, there currently isn’t much data available that can prove or disprove that a solution or strategy works.
That’s why the International Association for Healthcare Security and Safety (IAHSS) has released three new publications that lay the foundation for a more standardized and consistent approach to the collection and categorization of healthcare security incidents.
To help us make sense of all of this, Campus Safety Editor-in-Chief Robin Hattersley interviewed Tony York, who is executive vice president of Paladin Security and PalAmerican Security, as well as past IAHSS president and board member.
In this interview, Tony addresses the following topics:
- A detailed explanation of the New Guidelines on Incident Categories and Data Analysis, the IAHSS Healthcare Security Incident Category Framework, and the Healthcare Security Glossary of Terms: 2:29
- Why the healthcare security community needs a consistent approach to the collection and categorization of security incidents: 5:17
- Why healthcare security executives need the ability to make apples-to-apples comparisons of incident data among different facilities, and how this helps healthcare executives and their organizations as a whole: 6:57
- Why already-overworked healthcare security professionals who are concerned that adopting this guidance will be a lot of hard work should put in the extra effort to adopt this guidance: 13:56
- Healthcare facility information confidentiality: 14:55
- Examples of how a healthcare security executive could down the road use this data to make the case for improved security at his or her organization: 16:40
