Security guards are security professionals who provide security services to protect people, property, and assets. Security services include threat response, law and order, emergency response, and visibility deterrence. Security guards are employed in a wide variety of industries; thus security guard services are crucial to many aspects of life across the business landscape. But security guard services can also offer your entertainment events business other unique services, including: 

1. Emergency paramedic response

A security guard is a first responder who can act before emergency services arrive. In some cases, security guards have medical training and the authority to administer emergency first aid until paramedics arrive on site. In any case, having a security guard on hand gives you added protection as they will direct people suffering from an injury or illness to safety and away from harm while awaiting assistance.

2. Guest vetting

Security guards control access to your facility by checking identification at the door with state-of-the-art access control devices. Some may even screen guest names against 'black lists' for individuals who are unwelcome visitors to prevent their entry into your business premises if applicable law requires this type of restricted access. 

3. Very important persons (VIP) area protection 

A common security services requirement is to protect VIPs in public areas. This could include having a security officer monitor the seating area of an event or venue, for example, or arranging for police escorts to and from locations where VIPs are present.

Security services escort VIPs from the moment they enter the entertainment venue and all the time they spend at the venue. All the way from their arrival to departure. 

4. Entertaining guests

Security guards can be a great source of entertainment for your employees and special guests alike as they will interact with them in an informal manner to remind everyone that life is fun. Security guards will also protect the privacy of those guests you bring into your business premises as appropriate, such as celebrities or dignitaries who may require privacy from the public at large during their stay on site.

Security officers provide a friendly and professional presence at corporate or charity events, for example, or even work as ushers at large-scale public events such as sports matches. 

5. Queue management 

To ensure smooth entry to your place of business without causing delays, security guards can be trained to manage queues to maintain the flow for guests during peak times. They ensure guests maintain order at all times when entering and exiting the venue.
