ERMS Corporation, a leading provider of emergency notification and management services is pleased to announce Manitoba Health and Healthy Living has selected and implemented ERMS to manage their crisis and incident management requirements.
The primary mission of Manitoba Health'ss Office of Disaster Management (ODM) is to ensure the health sector is capable of providing a coordinated and effective response to the health
needs of Manitobans during a disaster. During a disaster, the ODM facilitates the coordination of the health sector'ss activities with other levels of government, agencies and
organizations involved in the response. The first phase of the ERMS implementation addresses the communications and collaboration requirements of the ODM staff, Regional Health Authority
operational response teams, and executive and senior management teams.
The ability to share information and rapidly collaborate across teams and regions is critical in providing a swift and effective response effort to emergency situations. The ODM was
impressed with the ease of use, speed and reliability of the ERMS system. In addition, the system'ss GIS-enabled notification functionality allows the ODM to rapidly target areas that
have been impacted by floods, forest fires, pandemic outbreaks and other disasters, enhancing response efforts.
We are happy to have Manitoba Health on board as a customer and are committed to ensuring the Office of Disaster Management is able to fully leverage the communications and collaboration
power of the ERMS solution, says Janet Thompson, President of ERMS.
