Synopsis

Hospital and Healthcare Security, 7th Edition builds on the foundation of the previous six editions and includes new material to reflect the current state of healthcare security, particularly in data security and privacy, patient-generated violence, new technologies, and regulatory changes. It explains the basics as well as 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 reference discusses best practices when assessing the security vulnerabilities of a healthcare environment, security master planning and layering in protection philosophies into the built environment, and leveraging security systems and innovation and focuses on operationally proven practices, 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 is rewritten in most areas and contains approximately 25-30% new and updated data and corresponding examples. This book is deemed by healthcare executives, accrediting agencies, and industry associations to set the standard of care for healthcare security systems and programs. Its scope, purpose, and objective do just that--set the standard of care in healthcare security in both a legal and operational sense. It serves as a comprehensive resource for those new to the industry, recently promoted and seasoned professionals alike.
