The North Carolina Law Enforcement Officers' Guidebook to Policing in Healthcare is a practical reference for law enforcement officers assigned to or responding within hospitals and other healthcare facilities.
Focused on real-world encounters, it provides guidance on custody authority, involuntary commitments, common offenses, relevant case law, documentation standards, HIPAA, EMTALA, and the boundaries of police authority inside clinical environments.
Written by a working law enforcement officer with graduate-level education in public administration and law enforcement leadership, this book is an operational aid rather than a legal textbook. It supports officers facing complex situations at the intersection of policing and healthcare.
