Healthcare Security and Safety Week is typically celebrated the second full week of October.
From Psalm 91: 1-4
Those who dwell in the shelter of the Most High
and abide in the shade of the Almighty
say to the Lord: “My refuge,
my stronghold, my God in whom I trust!”
It is God who will free you from the snare
of the fowler who seeks to destroy you;
God who will conceal you with his pinions
and under his wings you will find refuge.
Father of all tenderness and care,
you know us through and through.
You know that there are times and places in our lives
when we feel the need for refuge and hope.
Keep safe all who inhabit our healthcare facilities:
patients, visitors, and all who work in this healing ministry.
Give your own vigilance and strength to those who serve as
Security and Safety Officers among us,
that they may be kept from harm’s way even as they keep us safe.
In your all-protecting name we pray.
Amen.
