Fisher County Hospital District, Fisher County, Texas

The “Heartbeat of Fisher County” had a mass notification system…It switched to Regroup Mass Notification to increase efficiencies in keeping its patients and staff safe and informed.

FISHER COUNTY HOSPITAL, LOCATED IN CENTRAL WEST TEXAS, SERVES ITS COMMUNITY WITH MEDICAL, SURGICAL AND EMERGENCY ROOM SERVICES.

Fisher County Hospital District is a special and unique community with high needs in Central West Texas. The district was previously working with Omnilert for its mass notification service. After careful consideration of their system and looking at other options, leadership at the hospital decided to switch to Regroup for an efficient, streamlined and more effective solution for their communication needs. The two-tap mobile app solution we offer makes it seamless and simple.

Three Ways Fisher County Hospitals Plan to Use Regroup

  • Mass Casualty Events: When there is mass casualty or mass trauma event, the entire staff gets a text. With a small hospital in a rural area, its critical to be able to keep the facility staffed appropriately — and be able to bring in everyone who’s needed when there are mass casualties or trauma from incidents like bus crashes or an industrial accident. Doctors and staff members can immediately respond back to report they are on their way, or out of town, etc.
  • Active Shooters or Unexpected Violence: Hospitals need to be prepared for violent events, which sometimes result in multiple injuries and deaths. When there are evacuations, lockdowns or other official announcements from schools, industries and other institutions, the entire staff can receive the information they need, right away.
  • Inclement or Dangerous Weather: The hospital can inform its staff of dangerous road conditions, extreme weather events and any other event that could make road travel dangerous, or pose health threats to the public the hospital serves. Fisher’s IT department will send out a weather “drill” text once a month so the doctors, nurses and staff get in the habit of reading the texts and responding back.
