title: It will never happen here, right?
abstract: No health care facility--whether acute or long term care; urban or rural; small or large--is immune from violence today, the author reports. Money saved by not providing adequate security, she adds, exposes the facility to much greater monetary and other risks. In this article, she provides healthcare security professionals with risk management strategies they can use to identify and address security vulnerabilities.
