Crisis Communications; Bridging the Life Safety gap
between Private & Public First Responders
This presentation will review the communications concerns between both
arriving municipal fire services, and the private sector first responders. It
will review challenges and obstacles currently faced by fire services when
interacting with security personnel, during workplace and building crises, and
strengthen the partnership and communication abilities that positively impact
public and first responder safety.

Health Hazards & Disease Transmission; Prevention &
Response for Security Responders; Risks, Liability and
Best Practices
Health & Safety when it comes to the “Security” First Responder has long
been a gap with limited advancement. This presentation will
review the risks for disease transmission for the security officer, and best
practices required to protect them, and provide best practice compliances
under OHSA for your security program. We will review “Airborne” and
“direct” contact disease, cleaning and decontamination of Personal
Protection Equipment in the security industry.

3. The First Responder; Critical Incident Stress & Mental Health
This much needed and trending topic is of concern with recent recognitions in
the first responder industry. Security personnel are the "true" first responders

recovery for mental health and critical incident stress, including the review of
current and future security program standards, impacts and liabilities.

positively impact public safety and business continuity, applying
standards & best practices, “at risk” persons and Life Safety
considerations. At the end of this presentation you will understand the
vast benefits to Workplace Violence and OHSA programs, and building
bridges between Private sector security and integration with all three (3)
emergency services, and their receiving the required, “time-sensitive”
information required for effective threat management and response.
