One of the best ways to ensure that Cooper remains safe is when<strong> you<\/strong> <strong>see something, you say something <\/strong>by calling Security immediately at <strong>856.342.2400<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>While there is no perfect solution to this increasing problem in our society, we thought it would be appropriate to give you an update on a number of measures Cooper\u2019s Security team has put in place and planned. Click <a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.jwplayer.com\/previews\/NQIK7ekM-u2ucyRs4\">here<\/a> to watch a video update and read more about our security initiatives below.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Gary Catts is Cooper\u2019s new Administrative Director of Security. Gary worked for the NJ State Police for 28 years and in urban health care security administration for the last seven years.<\/li>\n<li>In the Emergency Department, we are currently piloting a new weapons-detection technology, using low-frequency radio waves that do not require individuals to empty their pockets. If the pilot is successful, Security will install this technology at other campuses.<\/li>\n<li>We are hiring a coordinator to oversee Cooper\u2019s violence prevention program to include training in de-escalation techniques, identification of opportunities to increase team member safety, and improvements in investigation of workplace violence events.<\/li>\n<li>Assessing and upgrading Security presence at ambulatory locations.<\/li>\n<li>We will be deploying a new mass notification system in coming months that will send text message alerts to all team members who provide their cell phone numbers.<\/li>\n<li>We included active shooter training in Cooper\u2019s mandatory annual training to increase team member preparedness. In September, Security held an active shooter training session with representatives from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security; a second session is scheduled for November. Next year, Security will schedule active shooter drills for additional training.<\/li>\n<li>The Security Corner on The Pulse has security updates and safety materials.<\/li>\n<li>On the hospital campus:\n<ul>\n<li>Security personnel are 24\/7 and we have Camden County Sheriff\u2019s Office mobile patrols.<\/li>\n<li>Cooper has 1,105 cameras across the campus monitored from a state-of-the-art Security Command Center 24\/7.<\/li>\n<li>16 security monitor stations in addition to the Security Command Center.<\/li>\n<li>204 emergency panic\/duress buttons across the campus.<\/li>\n<li>64 Code Blue Security Stations on streets on the Health Sciences Campus, including garages.<\/li>\n<li>X-ray machine for bags at the main Emergency Department entrance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As the above list indicates, we are continually reviewing ways to improve security at Cooper. Your security and that of our patients and visitors remains a top priority.<\/p>\n<p>Remember \u2013 one of the best ways to keep Cooper safe is for you to call Security at <strong>856.342.2400 <\/strong>when you see something that does not feel right. Save this number in your cell phone.<\/p>\n<p>Simply put: If you see something, say something.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Across the country, crime rates and violence have been on the rise.
