Meet the Hospital Security Experts Presenting at the Campus Safety Conference in Chicago

The Campus Safety conference in Chicago will be split up into three tracks designed to serve the needs of security professionals in different fields: K-12, higher education and hospitals.

The Campus Safety conference being held July 13-14 in Chicago, Ill., is a can’t-miss educational event for security officers, emergency management personnel and administrators responsible for the protection of hospitals and schools. Topics covered will include establishing threat assessment teams in medical facilities, the evolution of data privacy, outsourcing security services and much more.

The conference and exhibitor expo will take place at the Rosemont Hilton in Chicago. To register for the event, visit www.campussafetyconfrerence.com.

Here’s the educational line up for the conference’s hospital track:
