Safety Patrol Personnel

In today’s world, the safety of residential areas have become more critical than ever. With increasing concerns about personal and property safety, communities are seeking effective solutions to ensure the safety of their homes and loved ones. Safety Patrol services have emerged as a proven and proactive approach to enhance the safety of high-density residential facilities and communities.

The presence of Safety Patrol personnel serves as a strong deterrent against unsafe behaviors and activities onsite, and discourages unauthorized persons from coming onsite and potentially causing hazards, reassuring residents of their safety.  This constant vigilance communicates a clear message that the area is well-protected. The visibility of Safety Patrol personnel can also provide peace of mind to residents. Knowing that Safety Patrol personnel are just a moment away allows community members to go about their daily lives with an enhanced feeling of safety and confidence.

Safety Patrol services represent a comprehensive and dynamic approach to ensuring the safety of high-density residential areas and communities. Their visible presence deters unsafe and unauthorized behavior onsite while offering peace of mind to residents, supported by rapid, measured responses when incidents occur. Financially, these services present an affordable yet effective option, reducing long-term costs related to safety liability and property damage. Most importantly, safety patrols foster trust and engagement within the community, encouraging residents to actively participate in maintaining a safe neighbourhood, promoting a safer, more resilient living environment.

Safety patrols in seniors assisted living and retirement residences offer numerous benefits, including enhanced facility and resident safety, crucial support for residents' well-being and specialized needs and increased peace of mind for both residents and their families. 

Safety & Hazard Identification, Visible Deterrence: Safety Patrol personnel inspect all areas, including common rooms, hallways, parking lots, and external perimeters. They look for safety hazards as well as potential maintenance issues like broken lights or trip hazards, addressing issues proactively.  Safety Patrol personnel conducting both regular and unpredictable patrols create a strong visual deterrent to unauthorized persons coming on-site, persons behaving in an unsafe manner or doing unsafe activities onsite, reducing the likelihood of incidents.

Rapid Incident & Emergency Response: Safety Patrol personnel are trained to respond swiftly to various emergencies, including medical incidents, fires, or safety hazards. Their on-site presence can be vital in de-escalating stressful situations and behavior, providing critical support before first responders arrive.

Wander Management & Wellness Checks: Safety Patrol personnel can monitor for residents who may be at risk of wandering off the premises and gently guide them back to safety. Safety Patrol personnel can perform regular welfare checks on residents, ensuring their well-being and promptly summoning aid for any care needs or unusual situations.

An environment where residents feel safe significantly reduces stress and anxiety, fostering a sense of comfort and independence. This peace of mind is invaluable for residents and reassures their families that their loved ones are in good hands, creating a safe, stable and welcoming environment for senior living communities.

Convenience Stores, Liquor Stores, Cannabis Stores and Gas Stations are commonly open later than most other businesses. They are usually staffed with minimal personnel and are sometimes situated in high-risk areas of the city.  This makes these sites higher risk than others, and requires a greater level of safety measures to ensure the safety of the workers and property.

Regular scheduled and random safety patrols ensure that Safety Patrol professionals visit these sites to ensure the safety of your personnel, compliance with safe conduct policies on-site and act as a deterrent to unauthorized persons coming onto the site or behaving in an unsafe manner.

This reduces potential liability exposures to the owners and managers of these types of sites, and demonstrates a commitment to the safety of the workers and members of the public that work at, and visit these sites.

24-Hour Live Video Monitoring

Partnering with Alarm Monitoring Center Inc. (AMCI), OLS Consulting Group Inc. (OLSCGI) offers a variety of video monitoring services.

AMCI's Central Monitoring Station (CMS) is equipped with state-of-the-art video and two-way audio technology.

This virtual audio and video solution secures your property for a fraction of the cost of a stationed Safety Patrol Agent. Video signals are received over the internet in real-time for immediate dispatch and video review.

Monitored camera systems are proven to have higher rates of maintaining site safety and integrity as they are monitored real-time by a live person who dispatches Safety Patrol personnel to the client site. Safety Patrol personnel are then able to arrive on-site in coordination with monitor personnel to quickly address identified or potential hazards and other potential sources of liability for property owners or worksite owners and managers. This results in a greater deterrent to site and policy non-compliance and unauthorized persons on our clients' private property. 

As partners in client site and community safety, Alarm Monitoring Center Inc. (AMCI) offers:

- 24-Hour Live Video Monitoring

- 24-Hour Alarm Monitoring

- Alarm and Camera System Installation

- 2-Way Voice and Talk-Down

- Video Alarm Verification

24-Hour Alarm Monitoring

Our CMS operators view each alarm signal that your existing alarm panel sends to our central station and our operators take action on the alarm based on the events received and your site-specific protocols.

2-Way Voice and Talk Down

We recommend pairing this service with an elevator camera to allow us to see the events and describe the situation to emergency services in real-time as events transpire.
