See how Semper Secure can improve your safety and service standards today.
New Brunswick occupies a distinctive position in Central Jersey as both a major university town and regional healthcare destination. Rutgers University’s main campus sprawls across multiple neighborhoods, creating security needs ranging from residence halls to research facilities. Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital anchors a massive medical complex including cancer institutes, children’s hospitals, and medical office buildings. Johnson & Johnson’s world headquarters represents global pharmaceutical presence. Downtown’s State Theatre and George Street Playhouse draw regional audiences. Meanwhile, residential communities—from student housing to family neighborhoods—create diverse protection requirements spanning multiple demographics.
At Semper Secure, we’ve tailored our New Brunswick operations to serve this unique ecosystem. Our officers understand university security protocols balancing campus openness with student safety. They’re trained in healthcare environment requirements including HIPAA compliance and patient interaction. They grasp corporate pharmaceutical security standards. And they navigate the cultural sensitivity required when protecting institutions serving students, patients, employees, and visitors from diverse backgrounds. We respond efficiently throughout New Brunswick and surrounding Middlesex County communities, coordinating seamlessly with Rutgers Police, New Brunswick Police Department, and the various institutions defining the city’s character.

Absolutely. Our healthcare security specialists serve Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital and associated medical facilities throughout New Brunswick’s medical district. They complete training specific to hospital environments: HIPAA confidentiality and patient privacy requirements, emergency room security managing agitated visitors and patients, psychiatric unit protocols requiring specialized de-escalation approaches, visitor management in intensive care and surgical areas with restricted access, infant abduction prevention in maternity units, workplace violence prevention protecting medical staff from patient and visitor aggression, and coordinating with hospital security leadership and medical staff during Code situations. Healthcare security requires compassion combined with firmness—our officers understand this balance.
Yes. Johnson & Johnson’s headquarters presence and Rutgers research operations create pharmaceutical security needs throughout New Brunswick. Our pharmaceutical-trained officers understand intellectual property protection for proprietary research, executive protection for corporate leadership, visitor management for business meetings and facility tours, laboratory security including controlled substance protocols, loading dock security managing material deliveries, after-hours building security when research staff work irregular schedules, and maintaining the professional corporate image pharmaceutical companies expect. Many bring prior corporate security or law enforcement backgrounds directly applicable to pharmaceutical environments.
Yes. New Brunswick’s extensive student housing market—both university-owned residence halls and private student apartment complexes—requires security understanding college populations. Our student housing officers manage lobby security in buildings housing hundreds of residents, address noise complaints and resident conflicts diplomatically, respond to alcohol-related incidents appropriately, prevent unauthorized guests and parties in violation of lease terms, conduct parking enforcement in resident lots, handle roommate disputes and interpersonal conflicts, and maintain security protecting residents and property without creating antagonistic relationships that undermine community atmosphere. We understand students need security that’s helpful, not heavy-handed.
Our New Brunswick officers work regularly with both NBPD and Rutgers University Police Department, understanding their distinct jurisdictions and coordination protocols. For incidents on Rutgers property, we coordinate with RUPD who hold primary jurisdiction over campus. For off-campus properties, we work with NBPD across all city districts. Our officers understand when incidents require university police versus municipal police, radio communication protocols for both departments, how to provide detailed incident reports meeting both university and municipal standards, and the working relationships between RUPD and NBPD on matters affecting both campus and surrounding community. This dual-coordination capability proves essential in New Brunswick’s unique town-gown environment.
Absolutely. We’ve staffed security for events at State Theatre, George Street Playhouse, and Rutgers performing arts venues. Our cultural venue officers understand theater operations and audience management, pre-show and intermission crowd control in confined spaces, VIP and donor reception security, late-night venue closure procedures, coordinating with box office and house management staff, managing patron conflicts or medical emergencies during performances, and maintaining security without disrupting artistic productions. Theater security requires understanding that audiences came for entertainment—our presence enhances rather than detracts from their experience.
While New Brunswick proper is our primary focus, we serve surrounding Middlesex County communities closely connected to the city: Highland Park’s residential neighborhoods and commercial areas, Piscataway including Rutgers Busch and Livingston campuses, North Brunswick’s residential and commercial properties, East Brunswick’s retail and office complexes, Edison’s corporate offices and residential communities, and other Middlesex County municipalities. Many properties in these surrounding areas have New Brunswick addresses or strong New Brunswick connections—our regional Middlesex County presence enables us to serve this broader geography effectively.
