Dedicated Security Services at Royal Blackburn Hospital – Award-Nominated Team

GSTS proudly delivers dedicated security services to East Lancashire Health Trust, including specialised ESSO (bedwatch) provisions at Royal Blackburn Hospital. Our highly trained team ensures a compassionate, non-restrictive approach that prioritises the safety, dignity, and well-being of patients, staff, and visitors.

In addition, GSTS officers operate under the Positive Behaviour Support framework and follow the Restraint Reduction Network (RRN) model. This ensures we focus on de-escalation techniques and non-restrictive interventions. As a result, our officers align with NHS values of respect, dignity, and care.

Furthermore, our officers maintain a visible and reassuring presence throughout the hospital. They conduct routine patrols to deter risks and provide peace of mind to everyone on-site. Meanwhile, our specialised ESSO bedwatch services support patient safety with professionalism and compassion.

At GSTS, we remain rooted in our core values of One Team, Honesty, Integrity and Public Service. These principles drive our commitment to excellence, ensuring we meet and exceed the needs of our NHS partners.

We are proud to share that our team at Royal Blackburn Hospital has been nominated for the NAHS National Healthcare Security Team of the Year Award. This recognition highlights the trust our NHS clients place in us. It also reflects our dedication to delivering exceptional Healthcare Security services.
