HOSPITAL SECURITY: beyond standard guard Services
CityWatch Security delivers trusted, auditable protection in high-risk, high-compliance clinical environments. With over 30 years of experience in healthcare security and guard services, we understand the complex needs of hospitals, aged-care facilities, mental-health units, and medical centres across Australia.
Our intelligent systems, rigorous compliance standards, and specialist security personnel ensure every site is protected with professionalism and care. CityWatch provides end-to-end healthcare and hospital security solutions that support patient wellbeing, staff safety, and operational continuity — 24 hours a day.
Specialist Patient Watch & Observation Services
CityWatch is among the few Australian providers offering a dedicated Patient Watch service — a rapid-response solution designed for sensitive, one-to-one patient observation. Our trained security officers work alongside clinical teams to maintain patient safety, dignity, and confidentiality, while reducing the workload on medical staff.
Cloud-Based Security
CityWatch’s integrated cloud-based security platform is built to meet the rigorous demands of hospital governance frameworks, Australian Privacy Principles (APPs), and ISO 27001 information security standards. Our advanced CCTV infrastructure features comprehensive audit trails, role-based access control, and privacy masking to maintain patient confidentiality and operational transparency. Using device-based incident reporting, our officers capture linked footage, detailed notes, and response data in real time, creating a verifiable end-to-end record of every incident. All information is encrypted in transit and at rest, securely stored within Australia, and fully compliant with national health information privacy regulations. With real-time alerts and structured escalation protocols, every event is tracked, validated, and resolved swiftly — supporting safe, compliant, and accountable healthcare environments.
