Expert advice and guidance to the healthcare industry
We focus on one simple concept, ensuring a safe place of work.
Legally binding requirements for Health Services.
Healthcare facilities are required to produce evidence that it has conducted a comprehensive security (threat) risk assessment within the past three years.
This shall be conducted by a qualified and experienced person in consultation with relevant workers and stakeholders (AS4485.1:2021).
Why commission an Inspection or Audit?
Historically, health services and health practices do not maintain the staff with the appropriate qualifications, experience, skills, or time, to undertake specialist security reviews.
Staffing within healthcare does not actively permit the detailed focus required for the undertaking of security risk assessments, which can lead to consequences of non-compliance.
Consequences of non-compliance.
- workplace negligence
- non-compliance impacting clinical governance
- criminal related actions of assault, trespass, malicious damage and theft against workers, patients and visitors.
These all have potential to directly impact business continuity, create a lack of confidence within community, and ultimately place our clinical staff and patients at risk.
