MHA equips hospital safety leaders, facility managers and health system administrators with the resources, including the Healing Happens Here toolkit, they need to create and maintain safe, compliant environments for all. Learn how MHA helps hospitals create safe work environments. 

Health care public safety and security officers are often the first responders to emergencies, workplace violence incidents and safety concerns. Their work ensures that caregivers can focus on healing, patients can feel secure, and visitors can trust the safety of hospitals and health system facilities. In an era of increasing workplace violence and evolving security challenges, their commitment is more important than ever.
