3n and Medworxx Partner to Deliver Advanced Incident Command Solution for Hospitals
Leading Organization in Healthcare Incident Management Integrates With Emergency Notification System Utilizing 3n Industry-Standard Interconnector for Hospital Emergency Response
GLENDALE, CA and TORONTO--(Marketwire - February 27, 2008) - 3n (National Notification
Network), the leading global mass notification system provider, and
Medworxx today announced the availability of a robust, mass
notification-enabled hospital incident command platform. Leveraging 3n's
industry-standard Interconnect for hospital incident command systems, the
combination of the 3n mass notification system and the Medworxx Emergency
Readiness System provides hospitals with the ability to manage emergency
plans from inception through planning, training and execution in real-world
environments for the first time in one integrated system.
The Medworxx Emergency Readiness System is a comprehensive, strategic
software platform that enables hospitals to capture data from their current
environments and use it to plan and execute emergency scenarios. Using the
Medworxx Emergency Readiness System, healthcare providers can conduct
master risk assessments of their facilities, highlight potential failure
points and prepare scenario plans to anticipate and alleviate these risks.
Medworxx users can also manage incidences directly in the tool as they
occur.
The 3n InstaCom™ system, the most reliable and effective mass
notification system available in the industry, gives Medworxx's system the
ability to reach past the borders of the software program to communicate
with and automatically deliver instructions to doctors, nurses and hospital
staff who are not logged into the system. The 3n InstaCom system
transforms Medworxx from a planning and organizational tool into a powerful
communication platform that can launch facility-wide, coordinated responses
to a limitless range of scenarios.
Dan Matlow, President and CEO of Medworxx, stated, "We view notification as
a key element of an Emergency Readiness System. The partnership between 3n
and Medworxx will provide a truly leading, best of breed Emergency
Readiness solution for hospitals."
"Because of the unique and complex nature of the hospital environment,
healthcare organizations need strong organizational tools to help them plan
and prepare for future emergencies, Communications plays a critical role in
hospitals' emergency planning and response," added Cinta Putra, CEO of 3n.
"By combining 3n InstaCom's powerful communication capabilities with the
Medworxx Emergency Readiness System, we are able to provide hospitals with
an advanced, fully integrated incident command solution for streamlined
emergency planning and response."
