allows healthcare facilities
Discussion three,
In settings such as a hospital or medical clinic, the public eye would assume that these particular communities are one of the safest buildings to be in during a disaster and you would think nonetheless that it will also have the minimalist in crimes. However, during disasters such as the terrorist attacks in the fall of 2001 to the earthquake in Haiti in early 2010 these mass casualties have caused hospitals to become victims as well and are known to consume their resources and be reduced in providing care to patients. In addition, many other forces have their own security tasks to assure and assess their own individual vulnerabilities, threats, and risks upon identification, which is why nearly every town has a police force. These forces will be of use to any situation they are to come across in the area and to evaluate how to care for these incidents (Reilly, 2011 p 276). Therefore, by discussing the hospitals security and defense it will be of necessary use in protecting the physical infrastructure within the medical setting and allows healthcare facilities to continue to provide the resources for patient care and delivery (Reilly, 2011 p 272).
Discussion Four,
Hospital security is important to protect those treating the patients and the patients themselves. People feel safe in a hospital when an incident occurs, and it is very important to maintain the safety level in a hospital to ensure no harm comes to their patients. Almost every town has a police force, and this is crucial to keep their citizens safe, without it, the incidence rates in both the town and hospitals are fairly high. Hospitals need to put risk assessments in place along with active protocols to ensure everyone under their care is safe and sound. In truth, anyone can enter a hospital and make the place unsafe. That is why the book emphasizes on hospital safety and protection, to prevent more incidents from happening (Moran, 2011).
