Help protect your care team members with Collective’s security and safety events notifications
A significant indicator of a patient’s risk for violence is a history of violence.

Types of security events captured by Collective include:
Collective security and safety events provides actionable data for a safer workplace
Identify
Easily identify patients who are prone to be security or safety concerns by gaining knowledge of past actions across the Collective network.
Measure
