Share intelligence with the best healthcare Security Professionals
MHSDA is all about sharing. We share our past experiences, talk about what works and what doesn’t. We work together to independently develop and implement policies that make all of our healthcare facilities safer and more secure. We even share intelligence about individuals who routinely challenge the safety and security of our facilities.
We bring the best Security Professionals and Corporate Partners together to deliver the best networking, information access, and resource awareness in the region. Get noticed. Stay Informed. Be successful.
