Speaking for a resident function and giving some VPS crime tips!

Be Assertive and Trust Your Instincts, Personal Safety Tips

Look and move with confidence and purpose.

Do not walk with you head down, but don’t challenge people either.

Set personal boundaries, scream and cause a scene if necessary.

Be aware of your surroundings.

Look and listen for any suspicious activity.

Keep your distance from strangers.

If you feel threatened or something does not feel right, take action immediately and change the situation.

Your instincts are your best tools for personal safety. (source: SF Safe)

The weather is turning and the pools are going to be in high demand.
From a business perspective having a pool is mandatory in this market. Unfortunately from a risk management perspective it is a nightmare. Pools are abused in several ways each year. Children run uncontrolled breaking pool equipment, alcohol consumption increases, after hour parties lead to climbing the fences, and don't forget the loud noises that disturb residents. Lastly and worse of all because of a lack of personal responsibility or lapse in judgment some people drown. As an apartment community you run the balance of running a business and assuring residents enjoy their quality of life. With that said, setting appropriate rules, and providing signage that displays these rules are a must. With all the rules and signs, you still need enforcement and follow through. That's where Valley Protective Services comes in. As your courtesy patrol company we view ourselves as an extension of your team. Please ensure that we receive copies of your pool rules. Armed with this information we can enforce the rules as we notice violations and follow through by sending you the violator(s) information. Working together we can hopefully decrease the unfortunate injuries that occur each year and help with customer retention through a safe and peaceful environment. Thank you and as always please contact us with any questions.

We have a team of Security Guards that are motivated to catch the people that disrupt the quality of life

At Valley Protective Services we receive phone calls and emails that describe strings of burglaries and vandalism that occur. In those phone calls or emails we are asked to keep an eye open and help catch or deter these crimes from occurring. As team mates the most critical information is sometimes overlooked or not shared.
When a resident reports these crimes to you, please make it a habit to ask Where it occurred? And What time did it occur? Crimes of opportunity typically have a pattern I.E. what time the kids get out of school, when residents leave for work, or early morning hours when most people are in R.E.M. sleep. With this information we can adjust the times we work your property and increase our chances of catching these criminals. Also, discuss with your Customer Service Representative different programs we can deploy, VPS does not always need to be in uniform and on a bike. VPS can deploy plain clothes officers to blend in the neighborhood and conduct surveillance on areas that are more prone to criminal activity. We can deploy bait cars and bikes, and or provide unmarked patrol cars that blend into the neighborhood. Sometimes the stealth approach is what a neighborhood needs.. Please feel free to call us with any questions you may have. Thank you and we look forward to helping you with your Courtesy Patrol needs.
