Changes in federal immigration enforcement policy have created new operational and legal challenges for healthcare organizations. Security leaders must be prepared to respond appropriately when Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers arrive at a facility — balancing patient care, privacy obligations, legal compliance, and staff safety.
In this webinar, Eric Clay, Vice President and Chief Security Officer at FMOL Health, will discuss practical frameworks for developing policies, training staff, and coordinating with legal, compliance, and executive leadership before an enforcement action occurs. Attendees will gain a better understanding of the differences between administrative and judicial warrants, public versus private areas within healthcare facilities, HIPAA and patient privacy considerations, and the importance of clearly defined response protocols.
Learning Objectives:
- Distinguish between the roles of ICE and the legal implications of administrative warrants, judicial warrants, and consent when responding to immigration enforcement activities in healthcare facilities.
- Identify key elements of organizational policies and response procedures that define staff responsibilities, escalation pathways, and interactions with law enforcement while protecting patient privacy and supporting regulatory compliance.
- Apply strategies for training, tabletop exercises, and cross-functional coordination to improve organizational preparedness and reduce operational risk.
- Identify operational and security considerations related to public versus private spaces, HIPAA requirements, and constitutional protections that impact enforcement activities within healthcare environments.
