AHA Endorsement:

Disaster Recovery Solutions

"Having Agility, we feel as though we are not alone in coming up with and implementing solutions for our small hospital during a disaster. It is comforting to know that we have some backup to help with solutions during a disaster response." - Clay Hart, R.N. CEN, ER Manager/Disaster/Trauma, Mt San Rafael Hospital

From hurricanes to fires and floods, ice storms and earthquakes, natural disasters are on the rise. And while major disasters are a critical risk, the majority of business interruptions are caused by unforeseen circumstances — singular events that can’t be predicted, like power outages and server failures. Even a brief temporary hospital closure can have dramatic implications on not only the organization but the entire community. As the health care delivery model becomes ever more reliant on electronic data and applications, restoring critical services immediately following a disaster is crucial.
