EmpowerSystems Expertise Cited in the Compelling CRC Press Publication "Medical Disaster Response: A Survival Guide for Hospitals in Mass Casualty Events"

Empower Systems offers a unique perspective on technological response to high-casualty events.

New York, NY, January 04, 2010 --(PR.com)-- EmpowerSystems is pleased to announce its involvement in a compelling literary publication focusing on medical disaster response for hospitals in mass casualty events.

EmpowerSystems has led innovation in the EMR/EHR industries for over 10 years. Their multiple EmpowerED client sites in New York City include New York Downtown Hospital, the primary trauma center for September 11 attack victims. The inspired clinical management of this world-altering event by NYDH staff and EMT personnel underscores the importance of organized medical response and the value of computerized documentation.

Section 4: Disaster Management – Clinical Issues / Chapter 6 – Documenation highlights the importance of how computerized hospitals can directly facilitate the management of medical disasters, whether caused by terrorism, accident, or weather. Dr. Guterman’s unique perspective offers valuable insight for clinicians, administrators, and IT professionals. Within the complex scope of this publication, the EmpowerSystems perspective offers specific, critical insight on leveraging cutting-edge technology for patient care and risk management. In addition to ED-based clinical documentation, EmpowerSystems expands its technical reach with the BioAlert Syndromic Surveillance System. By employing Google GPS maps, BioAlert provides clinicians with real-time information on whom in their community has been diagnosed with a particular illness and where they live. This technology is crucial for determining emergent situations; whether there is cause for concern related to an outbreak of infectious disease in a certain community or region. BioAlert takes the clinical data captured within EmpowerED and provides real-time data on the number of cases of diseases and epidemics. The unique medical/technical perspective of Dr. Guterman and the executive clinical leadership of EmpowerSystems made this journalistic collaboration a natural choice for editors David Goldschmitt and Robert Bonvino.
