AHS Secretary Hal Cohen sent a memo to all AHS workers on August 12, letting folks know that he and DCF Commissioner Ken Schatz are implementing a “clear set of procedures and protocols for you to follow should you encounter a situation where you feel threatened, harassed or at risk.”
It continues, “Whenever you encounter a situation that causes you to feel unsafe, is potentially violent, or may result in a critical situation, I ask that you do the following:
- If you believe there is an imminent and dangerous situation, call local law enforcement, then call BGS security;
- Report the situation to your supervisor; and
- Submit a BGS Security Incident Report (http://bgs.vermont.gov/security/incidentreport).
Tip: You should bookmark this link on your web browser for easy access to it.
“Your Supervisors will work with management, the designated security person in your department, Dawn O’Toole (Dawn.Otoole@vermont.gov) in the AHS Central Office, and other staff to provide support and determine the correct response to the situation via official Departmental, AHS, and state processes.”
