Our Services
Our Range of Certified Hospital Security Services
We provide a full spectrum of licensed and reliable security services for hospitals spread throughout San Diego County and surrounding regions. From delivering armed officers for high-level protection to patrolling guards for hospital parking lots to emergency safety professionals during mass casualty events, we take care of it all.
Armed Security
Officers carrying BSIS-exposed firearm permits and advanced training provide unparalleled protection to pharmacies, trauma centers, and healthcare facilities with elevated threat profiles. Best for high-risk environments demanding visible armed deterrents like Veterans Affairs (VA) hospitals, level 1 trauma centers, and medical facilities with documented security risks.
Unarmed Security
Trained security officers skilled in patient communication and de-escalation handle access points, provide escorts, and patrol hallways. They are ideal for outpatient clinics, general medical facilities, and community hospitals where a safe and calming environment is essential.
Emergency Security Services
Qualified guards trained in emergency protocols coordinate with local law enforcement and hospital incident command during emergency situations such as civil unrest, mass casualty events, or active threats. Ideal for crises at mass vaccination sites, urban emergency rooms, and medical centers in high-risk zones.
Temporary Security
Short-term security coverage for construction projects, transitional periods, special events, and staffing shortages. Perfect for clinics struggling with sudden vacancies, facilities that don’t have permanent security contracts, and event venues on hospital campuses.
Fire Watch Security
Expert fire security guards carry out continuous patrols to detect fire hazards, and keep evacuation routes clear during system outages, repair, or maintenance. Best for hospitals and laboratories undergoing system upgrades, renovation, or construction where fire safety compliance is crucial.
Mobile Patrol Security
Guards patrol exterior walkways, campus perimeters, and parking lots on foot or vehicle to keep a check for suspicious activity, unauthorized access, and theft. Excellent for large hospital campuses, such as UCSD Medical Center, Scripps Mercy, and sprawling medical complexes with multiple buildings and parking areas.

Protecting Every Hospital Department
Each department in a hospital faces distinct security risks. A pediatric unit is different from a maternity ward, which again differs massively from an intensive care unit. We respect the unique challenges of every department and have designed custom security services to meet their needs.
Maternity Ward Security
Besides unauthorized visitor access and violence, infant abduction and abandonment are two real threats San Diego maternity wards struggle with. Our licensed guards verify visitor credentials, check access points, and patrol the maternity units. They de-escalate tense situations, ensure no unauthorized person enters newborn areas, and maintain detailed logs to keep staff, patients, and infants safe.
Pediatric Unit Security
Children are particularly vulnerable to abduction. Our guards ensure this never happens in your hospital by maintaining a calm, child-friendly presence while constantly screening access points, visitors, and staff and assisting nurses with family members in distress.
Mental Health Unit Security
San Diego’s mental health units need extremely secure environments, as patients may be on involuntary holds. Our security experts undergo advanced training in de-escalation to manage violent situations without using force to reduce anxiety while protecting staff and patients alike.
Intensive Care Unit (ICU) Security
ICU patients are critically ill, which makes them often unable to advocate for themselves. Our guards make sure to keep them safe without causing any discomfort or interruption in their care, all while overseeing the security of the unit to maintain robust security.
Emergency Room (ER) Security
Typically, the ER continues to remain a volatile area in hospitals. Distraught family members, drug-seeking individuals, and combative patients are routine. Our certified hospital security guards control crowds, de-escalate nasty situations, and protect your staff and patients against daily threats.
Trauma Center Security
Trauma units are high-stakes, demanding complete focus and attention. Our security specialists control every entrance and exit, manage crowds, monitor surveillance systems, and coordinate with law enforcement if needed to create a safe space for everyone.
Pharmacy Security
Controlled substances, narcotics, and expensive medications are high-value targets in pharmacies. Our guards enforce strict compliance protocols, monitor access control points, and keep a constant check on inventory areas to decrease theft and shrinkage.
Laboratory Security
Diagnostic labs and research departments contain sensitive materials, high-value information, and costly equipment. Our competent guards secure entry points, lock down restricted areas, verify identities, enforce safety regulations and visitation policies, and handle difficult individuals to prevent vandalism, theft, and violence.

How Our Guards Keep Your Patients & Staff Safe
Our security officers do more than guard the door. They actively uphold your hospital’s safety while adhering to its regulatory policies. Guards manage who enters the hospital, watch camera feeds, and enforce hospital protocols to prevent unauthorized individuals from entering restricted areas like operating rooms, ICUs, and pharmacies. They also handle sensitive situations and de-escalate conflicts between patients, visitors, and staff to steer clear of violence. Security guards instantly respond to emergency calls and assist medical staff in restraining combative patients professionally and safely when needed. They also document every incident and action to provide hospital management with detailed digital reports.
