Conducting Site and Facility Patrols & Inspections During Closures

Conducting Cultural Facility/Site Patrols & Inspections During Current Closures (with or without designated security personnel)

There are a variety of ways to conduct patrols and site inspections for cultural institutions during times of extended closures. IFCPP’s upcoming webinar will delve into more detail on this critical component of institutional protection with best-practices recommendations and strategies. Regardless of available resources, the personal safety of responsible staff is paramount. This session will discuss some of the things that may place staff or facilities in jeopardy, or reduce the effectiveness of a patrol or site inspection.  IFCPP’s subject matter expert will demonstrate critical elements of patrolling cultural institutions of various types (regardless of who performs the patrol), taking into consideration those properties with no uniformed security and no regular staff presence during or after normal business hours.  We'll also discuss the benefits of video surveillance, emergency communications, intrusion detection, and fire alarms for enhancing situational awareness and staff safety.
