For facility managers who want to improve healthcare facility safety, it is worth paying special attention to door security, according to an article from Building Operating Management on the FacilitiesNet website.

• Illumination: The greater the illumination, the greater deterrence there is to an aggressor.
• Access control: Many existing access control cards are susceptible to cloning or spoofing. Consider moving to a higher security credential that is based on encryption.
