Delivering quality care while protecting patients, staff, and systems
Healthcare is an increasingly complex and collaborative system with hospitals already operating at or near maximum capacity daily. During critical events, the ability to anticipate and respond defines how adept hospitals will be in mitigating a host of risks that can threaten resilience. When seconds matter, lives depend on a coordinated real-time response typically involving multiple stakeholders, across multiple hospital sites. Whether responding to a daily, non-emergent clinical case or a high-acuity case, care providers are typically challenged with managing capacity and delivering quality patient care in less time, while exceeding compliance standards and patient expectations. All the while, they must maintain a safer environment of care by ensuring IT systems and technologies are running smoothly and any technology related incidents are resolved rapidly with little-to-no impact on patient care hospital operations.
Hospital and health system use cases

Emergency preparedness
Don’t let an incident make a greater impact than your response. From natural disasters to chemical spills to mass casualty incidents, hospitals and health systems need to be able to communicate and coordinate rapidly with many constituents about how to respond to the emergency while maintaining compliance to CMS guidelines.

Quality patient care
Clinical communication and collaboration are the key to good clinical care. This is especially true for hospitals and health system where care teams need to be able to rapidly communicate to manage the highest acuity patients including strokes, STEMI, and trauma patients when every minute counts.

Keep technology running
Software, hardware and IT failures, as well as ransomware and other cyber-attacks, impact EHR and other essential hospital systems. When teams need to be identified and rallied to address the situation, every minute saved by automating communications and ensuring the right people are alerted and begin resolving the issue as fast as possible results in improved patient care and reduced physician and staff frustration.
