Security

Since medical offices are normally unlocked during business hours, there are several measures you should take for office security purposes, including:

• Lock all doors when you leave the office.
• Instruct all employees to keep all valuables, including handbags/wallets in a secured location.
• Be aware during times of maximum movement of personnel (i.e. lunch breaks).
• Record serial numbers to aid police in identifying property in the event of loss or theft.
• All drugs / medications need to be locked away or kept in a secure location, away from the general public.

Please instruct staff to be aware at all times. Please contact Building Management immediately if you notice anyone or anything suspicious. In the event of an emergency, call 911.

Note: Arnold Pavilion - For Floors A through 6, please contact Swedish Security (opens in new window).

Theft Prevention

Reducing the potential for losses from theft requires diligence and awareness. Here are a few suggestions to keep in mind:

1. Lock all doors when you leave the office.
2. Instruct all employees to keep all valuables secured when unattended.
3. Keep calculators and expensive items off desktops.
4. Do not leave articles of value, including handbags and coats, in unguarded reception areas, even for a few minutes.
5. Thoroughly mix your vault or safe combination when closing.
6. Be aware during times of maximum movement of personnel (i.e. lunch breaks).
7. Record serial numbers to aid police in identifying property in the event of loss or theft.
8. It is suggested to have a receptionist placed in the front of the suite to discourage someone entering your suite with the intent to steal.
9. Keep any side or back entrances secure at all times.
10. Keep your purse and/ or wallet locked up. Leaving these items in an unlocked desk drawer is risky.

If you find yourself locked out of your suite during regular business hours, Building Management may be able to assist you in re-entering the premises; however, identification will be required for security purposes.

Burglary

Tenants are responsible for securing their space for any suite security alarms. If you have an illegal entry or theft, always call the police first, and then call Building Management. For insurance reasons, try to document everything taken from and/or damaged in your space. Then report the incident to your insurance company.
