Abstract

Despite the Covid-19 epidemic, relatively little is said about hospital safety and security these days, in fact, the concept, along with its complexity, is not precisely defined. In 2016,the concept of critical infrastructures and thus the operator’s security approach appeared in the Hungarian health care system. This required a more complex approach than before on the part of the security organisations. It is absolutely necessary to manage the human resources organisation, the operation of the facilities, the various service areas and the so-called classical security and safety areas such as property, fire, environment, disaster management and labour safety areas of the institutions in one management system. These are the areas where complex interpretation can be encountered in every case during Operator Security Planning. In my study, I review the evolution of the normative regulation of these areas and their impact on the security operators’ activities in hospitals from the period of the regime change to the present day, until the emergence of the complex operator security approach.
