Coronavirus Security Guard’s Response”I think I have coronavirus.”
Updated 14 March 2020
Coronavirus Security Guard’s Response: We’ve built a decision tree for security guards to use when they’re approached by a member of public who says may have coronavirus.
Security Guard & Authority Figure
You jump on the bus to work. But, after a few minutes you feel a unwell and by the time you enter your workplace reception you are coughing. What do you do?
In public spaces, work receptions, transport networks, all kinds of environments around the world, security guards are seen as authority figures. As a result, they are being asked by peers, staff and members of the public, what to do if they suspect they may have coronavirus.
SIRV Decision Tree Feature
We’ve used SIRV’s decision tree tool, to provide guidance on how to respond to people who ask about coronavirus. Because advice changes we’ve based it on the latest NHS guidance.
SIRV’s decision tree functionality produces an aide-memoire, a protocol that quickly and easily takes people through a decision making process. As a result, it’s a popular feature. For example, it’s:
- Dynamic, it can be updated real-time
- Auditable, any user’s pathway through the protocol is traced and recorded
- Free with the SIRV security guard software package.
