Security Officers as First Responders in Medical Emergencies

Every second counts in a medical emergency on your company’s property.

Your security department may have trained officers as first responders. Those first minutes of advance care before emergency crews arrive can make a life or death difference.

Equipping the premises with a medical emergency kit and training officers in emergency care are only part of the story. Detailed planning requires communicating to other staff to contact security immediately after calling 911 -- and setting and monitoring standards for how quickly officers should be at a victim’s side after being summoned.

Join our panel of veteran security leaders who will share how they are tackling the job of emergency medical response and planning at their companies.

• Practical minimum response times for your particular site, and how to train toward and monitor those quick responses.
• Medical supplies you’ll need and where to place medical kits for quick access.
• Up-front and repeat training needed to ensure your security officers are ready to provide immediate care.
• Steps to make sure that security officers and emergency crews aren’t hindered as they rush to an on-site emergency.
