Zahir Prescod

Maintained a safe and secure environment by enforcing shelter policies, conducting rigorous dorm checks, managing access control, and ensuring all entry points are monitored and operational. Conduct frequent facility rounds—half-hourly across dorms, common areas, and critical zones—to identify and address policy violations, safety hazards, or unauthorized activities promptly. Oversee incident protocols and emergency response, including accurate incident logging, dispatch coordination with police and fire services, and managing evacuations as necessary. Strengthen community interactions and de-escalation practices, building cordial rapport with shelter residents, providing crisis intervention when needed, and fostering a respectful, compliant environment. Implement digital reporting processes, supervising the submission of Daily Activity Reports and Incident Reports through SJ Solutions' electronic platform —ensuring timely documentation and continuity across shifts. Ensure operational readiness and compliance, verifying all guards hold proper certifications (e.g., NYS Security Guard License, F02 Fire Guard, CPR/First Aid), and maintaining equipment and safety procedures to adhere to company and regulatory standards.
