4 LOCKDOWN POLICY 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 Lockdown is the process of controlling the movement, access and egress of people around NHS property or other specific buildings / areas in response to an identified risk, threat or hazard that might impact on the safety and security of people and assets or, in deed the capacity of that facility to continue to operate. 1.2 Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust is required to provide a safe and secure environment in which patients, staff and visitors may safely engage in a therapeutic regime. A lockdown may be implemented by the Trust as part of a security incident or the major incident plan. This may be in partnership with other organisations both NHS and external e.g. Police intelligence. 1.3 Local managers may also need to be able to lockdown their own area e.g. in the event of a missing patient or a possible incident of violence and aggression in a community clinic where the manager decides to lockdown the area so other patients or service users can t be affected. The capability of NHS Trusts to lockdown their site or buildings fits in with their statutory responsibilities as Category One Responders as defined by the Civil Contingencies Act This policy has been written with reference to the Mental Health Act (1983 as amended 2007); The Mental Health Act Code of Practice (1999 as amended 2008) and the Human Rights Act (1998). 1.5 This policy applies to all in-patient units and should be read in conjunction with the trust Hazardous Material (Hazmat) Policy, Security Management Procedure (SH NCP 22) and Health & Safety Policy (SH HS 04), Risk Management Policy (SH NCP 25) 2. PURPOSE The purpose of this policy is to provide guidance to managers and staff that will enable them to follow appropriate steps to achieve a lockdown of the site that they manage / occupy. It is to work alongside the Incident Response Plan and other emergency plans / continuity plans, but may be used as a standalone policy if required. It is important to remember that many sites / buildings have multi-occupancy arrangements and SHFT plans must fit with any overarching lockdown plan that may be in place. 3. SCOPE The policy applies to all SHFT critical sites listed at Appendix H. It requires all managers of such areas, buildings or sites to work with security management staff to prepare a process whereby the area, building or site can be locked down when required. This may require collaborative working with other agencies or organisations i.e. local Police intelligence teams and /or Special Branch. 4

5 This policy is to be read in conjunction with the SHFT Security Management Procedure, Hazardous Material Policy (HAZMAT) and the SHFT Standard Operating Procedures for Ebola Identification. 3.1 DEFINITIONS / ABBREVIATIONS SHFT Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust CBRN Chemical, Biological, Radioactive or Nuclear (Incident) LSMS Local Security Management Specialist SMD Security Management Director MHA Mental Health Act 1983 MCA Mental Capacity Act 2005 CQC Care Quality Commission IRP Incident Response Plan 4. DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES 4.1 The Chief Executive has overall responsibility for ensuring the trust has a lockdown policy in place in accordance with the criteria set by the Quality Care Commission (CQC). 4.2 The Security Management Director (SMD) is presently the Director of Finance with responsibility for security management within the trust. The SMD is responsible for providing, where reasonably practicable, a safe and secure working environment and ensuring the safety and security of employees, patients, service users and others. 4.3 The Local Security Management Specialist (LSMS) is responsible for: The development of this policy, following guidance from NHS Protect. Providing guidance over the characteristics that will influence the ability of any site to effectively lockdown and the resources required to do so. Support site teams with the development of their lockdown processes and procedures. Support the undertaking a lockdown when required. Support inter-agency collaboration. 4.4 The Estates Team will lead on issues relating to the functionality of buildings and building resilience. They will have an in-depth knowledge of the structure and various systems that operate within any building. Their knowledge will be invaluable when determining whether it is possible to achieve a full or partial lockdown. 4.5 The Emergency Preparedness, Resilience and Response (EPRR) Working Group is responsible for the development of the Trust Incident Response Plan which documents plans and advice on preparing for specific types of disaster and/or attacks. 4.6 The Trust Communications and Engagement Team will help to ensure that a controlled message is broadcast to staff, patients and visitors within the trust and to the outside world, informing them of the current situation. The local media can be very helpful in directing people away from a site or building. The Trust Communications and Engagement Team will be able to seek their assistance, so it is important that they are involved and kept up to date as the situation develops. 5

6 4.7 All Directors, Operational Managers, Service Managers and Departmental Managers are accountable for ensuring that: They work with their teams, estates representatives, and the LSMS to identify and document the critical assets within the site, Develop a lockdown profile for their site/department, taking into consideration local circumstances and the NHS services provided. Managers must keep in mind that if there is a change to the services provided at a site, the lockdown plan must be reviewed to ensure that it reflects the new situation, Determine if a lockdown (partial or otherwise) is achievable, Identify appropriate resources to undertake a lockdown, Identify and disseminate a single point of contact and a backup, for notification of a requirement to activate lockdown plans, In consultation with local Stakeholders, develop a lockdown plan, Share details of the agreed lockdown plan with their teams to ensure that if, or when implemented, all staff are aware of their role and responsibility, Maintain the lockdown plan with the local Incident Response Plan / Business Continuity Plans and forward a copy to both the LSMS and the Trust Risk and Resilience Officer. That plans are tested for robustness and appropriate amendments or revisions are cascaded. 4.8 All Staff have a responsibility to take reasonable care of their own safety and security as well as the safety and security of others and to participate as required in the event of the implementation of a lockdown. In order to support a lockdown, staff will be assigned relevant activities to support lockdown procedures. Staff will report to their manager, situations where exposure to any security or infection hazard / threat may give cause for concern so that investigation and appropriate action can be undertaken. 5. PROCEDURE / IMPLEMENTATION 5.1 Types of Lockdown In locking down a facility, there are three key elements; preventing the entry, exit and movement of people on a trust site, part of a trust building or in a building or site where NHS services are provided. In preventing the entry, exit or movement of people, or a mixture of the three, the overarching aim of implementing a lockdown is to either exclude or contain staff, patients and visitors. A lockdown may be either, partial, progressive or full. All visitors should be requested to follow directions to support a lockdown; however, it is noted that the containment of any person against their will is prohibited. 5.2 Partial Lockdown (Static or Portable) A partial lockdown is the locking down of a specific building or part of a building. The decision to implement a partial lockdown will usually be in response to an incident. This response will help to ensure that identified critical assets such as personnel and property are protected. A partial lockdown can be static or part of a portable lockdown whereby an ongoing lockdown is moved from one location to another. 6

7 5.3 Progressive Lockdown A progressive or incremental lockdown can be a step-by-step lockdown of a site or building in response to an escalating scenario. 5.4 Full Lockdown A full lockdown is the process of preventing freedom of entry to an exit from either an entire NHS trust site; specific NHS building or premises that offer NHS services. In order to ensure a safe and secure environment it is essential that all relevant stakeholders engage in the development of a robust action plan. 5.5 Who Can Implement a Lockdown? By its very nature, a lockdown should be considered in a variety of situations, many of which require an immediate implementation and others which are in response to a major incident. It is clear that if an incident is occurring outside a premise, the senior member of staff in the premise should have the authority to make a decision to lock the premise as an immediate response to protect patients, staff and property (assets). Equally, the lockdown can be called by the Duty Manager as part of the Trust Incident Response Plan in response to a larger or impending risk. Any lockdown will involve reporting to the Duty On-Call Senior Manager / On-Call Director and it is this person who decides if the lockdown should continue and when it is to end. 5.6 Controlling Access / Egress in the Event of a Lockdown When following assigned duties in the event of a lockdown, all employees must remember that because all heath care sites and buildings are usually open to the public, members of the public have an implied licence to enter them. However, the owner of any such premises has the right to refuse access when required While NHS professionals can give direction within their premises (e.g. stating which exit someone can use), it is unlawful to forcibly prevent exit from NHS premises, with the exception of service users legally detained under the MHA. Nonetheless, there may be circumstances when a lockdown from existing NHS premises (or part of them) is desirable. If this occurs, MHS staff can only appeal to individuals to stay in the site and/or building identified for lockdown. If individuals choose to leave, then a safe route must be available for them to do so, with the exception of service users legally detained. 5.7 Guidance on Developing Plans for Lockdown Creating a lockdown procedure is a four step process: i. Complete the Building Profile this will help you assess the risks that are present and the complexities of locking the building down. ii. Choose the appropriate lockdown action card the lockdown action card is an aide memoire for your staff to use if a lockdown is required. It sits with the Incident Response Plan Action Cards and works with them. iii. Communicate with all staff all staff should be aware of what is needed when a lockdown is required. This should be discussed at team meetings and regularly updated. 7

8 iv. Practice At least once every 5 years, a full lockdown practice should be completed to ensure that the plan works and staff are aware of their duties. Responsible persons are to keep a hard copy of the floor plans of their sites and buildings along with their copy of the Trust Incident Response Plan (IRP). E. copies of these plans and photographs are available at: G:\FM SHARED UNRESTRICTED CONTROL\Critical Site Plans By using the appendices that accompany this policy, the manager of each site, in conjunction with the Trust LSMS / Security Advisor, will be able to develop a lockdown procedure for the site or premise. Each premise will have a lockdown procedure created and these will be reviewed by the site manager at least every 5 years or sooner as required by organisational changes Identification of Local Stakeholders Stakeholders in this context are the people / organisations who will be either instrumental in establishing an effective lockdown, or affected by the implementation of a lockdown. These stakeholders must be included in the planning process at some point Site Profile (Appendix A) Develop a Site Profile, taking into account the physical geography of the healthcare site for example: The size of the site, Marking out its perimeter, Access and egress points, The location and route of communications and the number of buildings on the site, Up to date site maps, Up to date site maps, floor plans and aerial maps, in conjunction with a live walk through should facilitate the development of this profile. This should be done in conjunction with a member of the estates team, hospital manager and, where required, the LSMS Building Profile (Appendix B) Create a building profile to review the functionality and capability of the buildings to lockdown either fully, partially or progressively. This will include: A full inventory of doors and windows, The amount of glazing and ability to resist a blast or forced entry, The ability to control access either manually or automatically, The building shape, height and condition for surviving a blast Whether it has air conditioning throughout which could spread a contaminant, Where power supplies are housed. 8

9 5.7.4 Refuge As part of the assessment, a room should be identified which has a telephone, is lockable and ideally has minimal windows. This will be the safest area in the event of a major assault against the building. Although unlikely, it is preferable to have identified this room prior to it being required Lockdown Procedure Checklist (Appendix C) The lockdown procedure checklist is an aide memoire to ensure that the person creating the procedure has considered all aspects that may be required. If after completing the checklist, any aspect has a NO answer, then this should be rectified and the checklist completed again until the answer is YES Lockdown Action Card (Appendix D G) Using all available information gained from the assessments detailed above, the manager will choose the most appropriate action card from the four choses: Lockdown Action Card 1 (Appendix D) Suitable for a building where trust staff are the only occupier and are fully responsible for the building. Lockdown Action Card 2 (Appendix E) Suitable for a building which has multiple different occupants / teams, but is predominantly controlled by trust staff. This requires agreement amongst all occupants. Lockdown Action Card 3 (Appendix F) Suitable for areas which are controlled by one manager, but involve multiple buildings or a large building with multiple, separate areas within. Lockdown Action Card 4 (Appendix G) Suitable for buildings / areas where trust staff are not the controller for the building. This requires an agreement with the building manager to ensure that trust staff safety will be maintained and to comply with the policies and procedures put in place by the building manager. 5.8 Creation of the Lockdown Procedures Each trust building or site should be capable of quickly achieving a partial or full lockdown in the event of any given emergency. These arrangements will vary in complexity depending on the size of the premises and the scale of the emergency For each building or site, an assessment will be made on the capacity and capability to lockdown which will feed into the creation of robust lockdown procedures for that separate premise and site. The level and robustness of the lockdown procedure is required The lockdown procedure is to be completed by the manager with the advice of the LSMS / Security Advisor if required. 9

10 6. TRAINING REQUIREMENTS 6.1 There are no specific training needs in relation to this policy, but the following staff will need to be familiar with its contents and should ideally have undertaken the Project Artemis training presentation: Facilities managers Managers of buildings, departments and sites Estates Managers Estates Officers Security Staff / Managers (where applicable) Any other individual or group with a responsibility for implementing the contents of this policy. As a trust policy, all staff should be aware of the key points that the policy covers. Staff can be made aware through a variety of means such as: Team briefings, Posters, Newsletters etc. 6.2 Legal Framework Article 5 of the European Court of Human Rights provides that no-one may be deprived of their liberty unless it is in accordance with a procedure prescribed by law. In the healthcare context in England and Wales, there are primarily three legal frameworks regulating a deprivation of liberty: Mental Health Act 1983 Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards Authorisation under the MCA 2005 Court order under s.16 MCA 2005 A lockdown, although a temporary measure, could still be construed as depriving a person of their liberty and as such, the above legal framework should be borne in mind. 7. MONITORING COMPLIANCE 7.1 As a minimum, the following will be monitored to ensure compliance: Element to be Monitored Procedure Table top lockdown exercises should be carried out in accordance with local procedures Training All staff locally who would be nominated to physically lockdown an area Lead Tool Frequency Reporting Arrangements Service / Annually Clinical Manager Service / Clinical Manager Lockdown Action Cards / Procedure Checklists. Staff Training Records & PDR Initially then 3 5 yearly Non-compliance will be reported through the H&S Committee and the Q&S Committee. Line Management responsibility 10
