Catawba Valley Medical Center Company Police

Jurisdiction and responsibilities

Catawba Valley Health System’s current employer-authored police recruiting material describes uniformed, armed law-enforcement work under company-police authority. The SBI directory lists the institutional agency under the older name Catawba Memorial Hospital Special Police, ORI NC018109P. The institutional policing function is separate from Hickory Police and ordinary non-sworn hospital security.

How the agency is organized

The employer places the Police Officer I role within Corporate Safety and Security. Its published requirements include Basic Law Enforcement Training certification and continued compliance with company-police commission standards. Crisis-intervention and basic life-support training are also described as job requirements. These are position requirements, not proof that every security employee is a commissioned officer.

Official records and officer resources

The health system’s current careers materials should be used to verify openings and application instructions. The employer-authored posting and official SBI agency directory establish the sworn institutional function without supporting a countywide territorial claim. A hospital street address is not automatically a verified police headquarters; the police-specific location and public administrative telephone remain unset.

FBI data · 2025

No unambiguous match for this agency was made in the FBI 2025 agency tables used for this directory. This does not mean the agency had no crime, no officers or no reporting obligation.

Blank or unavailable values remain “Not published.” Participating agencies and reporting scope vary. Campus figures concern the reporting institution; a city name does not expand them to all local residents. Read the data definitions and limitations.
