Exactly what I have said in the past.... Chaplains to the Security personnel and Chaplains to the people we protect. Most Chaplains are trained in Clinical Pastoral Education -- CPE. That's just one venue that a Chaplain Protector Medic could serve in....there are many more. Please know that there are your Spiritual Brother and Sister that pray for you.... we're here in "Little 'ol Rhody." Love to you and your family during this blessed time of year.... Happy Christmas... Miss Monique 🙂🙏🌷💗
If you ever create your own security company one of the positions you should have is a mental health advisor for all employees I totally agree with this
I definitely think we would benefit from having mental health officers within the field. For example, I dealt with a lady yesterday who is mentally unfit and often she likes to fight with us and local PD. However, because of my knowledge and experience, Im able to take control of the situation pretty quickly. She's not a safety threat for me personally but every security officer doesn't have the same or applicable experience as me. I personally do a lot of outside training on my own that isn't provided by the company I work for in terms of keeping myself up to date on new laws, policies, etc. I do wish people understood that security professionals are in some instances have it harder than LE. What I mean by that is, people don't understand that the security industry is used in various ways from your typical everyday security duties all the way to conducting threat assessments of a wide range of topics, collecting data, etc.
@ that was my goal initially but I changed my mind after getting into criminal justice research work and doing security work. Being a cop in our current society is just not work that hassle honestly.
90% of security doesnt do anything. Gatehouse, sits behind a desk or walks in big circles. Security officers dont stay in jobs long. Security is a business, the bigger companies have EAP.
🧐 High turnover of staff due to stress or unhappiness helps profitability? You are going to spend money on training up new employees, paying out lawsuits for poor or inaction of officers, or…..you could invest in the team you have and help them manage their problems while they remain productive employees. Seems like a distribution of resources issue, not an issue that doesn’t need to be addressed. Just my opinion though.
Luckily, the company I work for has EAP. They're very lenient when it comes to taking time off for health reasons whether it be mental or physical. I agree with you when it comes to having mental health officers. It makes a huge difference in an individuals performance. Also, you're not fat! Who would say such a dumb thing? Was it an 80lb crakk-head who got upset that you asked him not to loiter? 😂

Be a cop then.

IME employee assistance programs (counselling etc.) are lacking or completely non-existent (unless you're assaulted on the job).

What does that have to do with mental health 🧐
We do something, but not nearly as much as Leo does, very different in my experience.
@ it means security is a business and it doesnt help them be profitable to invest in mental health
@@jakejudson8578 and some security have very close power to LEO’s but some and very few. I said 90% of security does nothing.
