De-escalation and seeking a positive outcome were the pillars of security for Terry L. Jones. He has shared that vision with the many employees at Teachout Security that he has mentored over his 30-plus years in the industry prior to his retirement in 2023.

Terry began his employment with Teachout in the mid-80’s, working directly for Bernard Teachout. From there, he went to work for public safety at Hurley Medical Center. In 2007, he returned to Teachout and worked tirelessly to help grow and develop our management team and Healthcare Program. He continues to be a mentor to many of our employees as well as countless others within the industry. Terry’s drive for continuing education and credentialing in the industry was evident with his service on the Healthcare Council for ASIS and his involvement with the International Association of Healthcare Security and Safety (IAHSS).
