Our Security Process

How We Deliver Healthcare and Supported Living Security

Care settings demand officers who understand safeguarding, resident welfare and discreet, non-confrontational working. AGS Security follows a structured four-stage process so every healthcare and supported living assignment is properly assessed, appropriately staffed and effectively managed.

01

Consultation & Planning

We start by discussing your setting, resident profile, staffing hours and any safeguarding, CQC or contractual requirements that shape the cover.

  • Initial security consultation
  • Site and shift pattern review
  • Safeguarding and welfare priorities
02

Site & Risk Assessment

We review building access, communal and restricted areas, lone-working points, resident vulnerability and foreseeable operational risks.

  • Entry and exit point assessment
  • Risk and vulnerability checks
  • Recommended officer deployment
03

Officer Briefing & Deployment

SIA-licensed, DBS-checked officers are selected for the setting, assigned clear duties and fully briefed before their first shift on site.

  • Officer role allocation
  • Access control and patrol briefing
  • Incident and escalation procedures
04

Ongoing Operational Support

Our management team stays available throughout the contract to supervise cover, handle shift changes and respond to changing site requirements.
