Grady Health System a Model of Emergency Preparedness -- Highlighting One of Nation's Busiest Trauma Centers' Success With LiveProcess
Verona, NJ (PRWEB) April 30, 2008 -- LiveProcess, the leading healthcare solution for emergency preparedness and response, continues to expand nationally and gain wide acceptance as a first-to-market program for emergency managers today.
And nowhere is that more evident than at Atlanta-based Grady Health System, one of the nation's busiest trauma centers. "Whenever someone outside of our system complements us after a real-life emergency response, we tell them we were just doing our job," said Emergency Manager Charlotte Clark. "LiveProcess is all about sharing, planning and responding together to make things happen."
Indeed, Grady Health System has successfully used LiveProcess to manage real-life crises such as the massive treatment and repatriation of U.S. citizens following the terrorist bombings of Lebanon and Israel, and a host of other incidents such as bomb scares, multi-vehicle accidents, a tornado, and a hazardous materials poisoning at a private parochial high school.
Working with the Georgia Hospital Association (GHA), nearly 200 Georgia hospitals now use LiveProcess to help coordinate their emergency preparedness and response, and today form the first ever statewide emergency preparedness platform.
LiveProcess is building out its national presence as it drives continued enhancements of its industry-leading platform following new financing this month from a group of top healthcare and technology investors.
The American Hospital Association also has exclusively endorsed LiveProcess as the choice for disaster readiness and incident management for its more than 5,000 member hospitals. The AHA endorsement was made after an exhaustive year-long selection process, and further builds upon LiveProcess' presence as the leading web-based platform for helping hospitals manage their disaster preparedness plans and responses.
LiveProcess is:
? The market leader in emergency management and response for healthcare.
? Endorsed exclusively by the American Hospital Association
? Recognized as a best practice by the Advisory Board Company
? Solely committed to emergency preparedness and response for healthcare.
