Preparing for and managing disruptive and potentially dangerous situations with agitated patients or visitors in various healthcare settings has moved to the forefront of critical issues facing healthcare owners, facilities management, designers, clinical and administrative staff, and all stakeholders. 

This webinar, presented by a leading expert in security assessment, protective services, and crisis management, will examine the critical role and importance of security design throughout all phases of the planning and design process, and the considerations teams must evaluate to maximize safety and security for all building occupants. 

These insights will help design teams and owners understand the steps and processes security consultants utilize to help design firms not only build beautiful and safe buildings, but most importantly increase the overall safety of the individuals that occupy them. 

By understanding security design best practices and how they are implemented, owners and designers can greatly increase life safety and the ability to mitigate safety or security issues. The presenter will identify security systems to consider during design as well as other strategies and tactics that can benefit clients and keep all occupants as safe as possible. 

 

 

Learning Objectives

  • Learn the true definition of physical security design and how it helps protect and mitigate risk to individuals and occupants of the building.
  • Understand how security design best practices, when applied collaboratively with a cohesive understanding of the design project, help protect occupants and mitigate security issues.
  • Learn about the current market trends and differences as they relate to security and design and advance your understanding and familiarity with the most recent security layers to deploy and threats that could harm the design or occupants.
  • Understand why involving security design early in the planning and design process is the best way to ensure the safest building environment for occupants.

 

Presenting Faculty

Ryan Searles, CPD, Security Advisory – Group Leader, IMEG

Ryan has 22 years of professional experience and spent almost a decade in the U.S. Army. After his military career, he worked as a contractor for the government, providing anti-terrorism and counter insurgency training for the different branches of the U.S. and Foreign Militaries. He has conducted intelligence, counter terrorism, counter piracy, and foreign advisor operations across five continents.

Ryan leverages his comprehensive experience, training, and certifications to provide various types of design services, security consulting, and various assessments for IMEG’s clients and partners across numerous markets. As a Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) designated professional, Ryan utilizes CPTED during design to create safe and secure environments that avoid an overly institutionalized look and feel in favor of a cohesive, safe, aesthetically pleasing, and functional building.

Many attendees of The Center for Health Design’s webinars have inquired about IDCEC approval so they can earn ASID, IIDA, and IDS CEU’s. We have looked into this and unfortunately, the cost to upload courses to IDCEC is simply too high at this time. You can still earn credit for attending our webinars by requesting a verification certificate. As of July 9, 2020, The Center for Health Design requires a CEU management fee for verification certificates for all webinars and EBD Journal Clubs. Please contact Natalie Gonzalez, Project Manager, ngonzalez@healthdesign.org.
