Making sure staff and clients feel safe and secure in and around our clinics is a must.
End of last year, we started conducting surveys to help us better understand and address security at our clinics.
To start, we worked with security firm EaglesOne to conduct an agency-wide security assessment that identified and ranked a variety of security risks, recommending countermeasures to reduce, mitigate or eliminate identified risks.
Then, we conducted our own security survey (maybe you remember taking it!) that looked at four general categories: (1) personal sense of security (2) security of their co-workers; (3) general level of security; and (4) security of clients.
This feedback has helped us develop a list of security priorities that we’ll be implementing this year. Have a read over our assessment and next steps here.
