Hospital security professionals gather at Kentucky conference

Conference also serves as yearly training event


The annual Kentucky Healthcare Coalition Conference, which also serves as a yearly training event for Region 2 of the International Association for Healthcare Safety and Security, featured keynote speakers and expert roundtables, according to an article on the Campus Safety website.

The conference had attendees from Kentucky, Massachusetts, South Carolina, Indiana, Ohio, Virginia and Maryland.

In addition to the security track, the conference featured sessions for management/leadership, facilities maintenance and materials management.
