Chubb helps hospitals to manage risk


The hospital environment leaves staff, patients and buildings facing many risks. It is particularly vulnerable to crime, being exposed 24 hours a day, all year round, with multiple access points.

For management, this means constant concern over patient, employee and visitor safety, as well as the risk of crimes ranging from vandalism, theft and drug taking to sabotage and kidnap.

Hospitals depend upon their reputations – and therefore they need to be able to trust their suppliers completely. Amongst global security suppliers, Chubb stands out as one of the world’s leaders with a proven track record and a portfolio of total security and fire protection solutions.

Harrogate International Centre, Stand C 169

A number of Chubb’s security capabilities for the Healthcare sector will be on show at the HealthCare Estates Conference & Exhibition on 12 – 13 November 2002. The stand will highlight Chubb’s latest product developments including NurseCall – which provides a prompt and effective response to patients calls at the touch of a button at all times, and also highlights Chubb’s Total Fire Solution.

Total Fire Solution

The consequences of fire are something no hospital manager wants to contemplate. When deciding a fire safety strategy for a hospital, managers should consider how to: PREVENT fire, DETECT fire, CONTAIN fire and ESCAPE fire. This simple approach to complete fire safety should be applied to all healthcare premises. More at www.chubb.co.uk/fire
