Self Defense for Medical Security Officers
Healthcare Security is a subspecialty that is faced with many unique challenges.
For example, sometimes you have two or more parties that need protecting, or are entering a scene with untrained personnel. Other times, you are forced into a situation where you have a to face increased liability and intense scrutiny by other patients or family members. Because of regulations, most hospital security personnel lack the tools and ability to use debilitating force as a way to defend themselves and others.
​
The My Occupational Defense training course for Medical Security Officers is specifically focused to address these challenges, integrating both necessary verbal engagement and verbal de-escalation tactics, as well as what to do when the need for physical engagement and physical de-escalation arises.
