Mental healthcare security supporting the care team

Mental healthcare security requires security guards who know the difference between malicious intent and behavior stemming from psychiatric issues, confusion, intoxication, or an acute crisis. Dutch Crowd Security provides security for mental healthcare institutions trained in predictive profiling, client-friendly intervention techniques, and de-escalation, enabling them to act calmly and respectfully in an environment where patients are vulnerable and the care team maintains control.


When is mental healthcare security needed

Mental healthcare institutions have widely varying risk profiles. The deployment of security guards differs by setting:

  • High Intensive Care (HIC) and closed wards where security guards provide support during aggression incidents and seclusion procedures
  • Open clinical wards with supervision in the common areas and during visitors
  • Ambulatory teams and FACT outpatient clinics for the security of the location and, in coordination, support during high-risk home visits
  • Crisis service and emergency psychiatry for reception upon acute admission and support during transfer to care
  • Child and Adolescent Mental Health Care (K&J) with supervision and extra attention to age and pedagogical context
  • Addiction care and dual diagnosis clinics for support during the detox phase and when tension rises
Executing the reception services en visitor registration: Many organizations work with a reception to welcome visitors, to register them and to keep uninvited guests out.

How We Work

Every assignment within mental healthcare starts with an intake during which we map out the department, the patient profile, the local protocol, and the care manager's wishes. Based on this, we draw up a deployment plan and assign security guards who are a good fit for the department. We work explicitly in a supportive role to the care team, whereby the healthcare provider retains control over the treatment and the security guard provides support where requested.
