CrisisGo: A Mobile Crisis Response Software
CrisisGo is an Android application that helps prepare individuals responsible for others during a crisis. The app takes Emergency Response Plans out of an organization’s three-ring binder and puts them onto smartphones, iPads, and desktops. This way, CrisisGo puts emergency response plans into the palm of the hands of those who need it most.
CrisisGo offers several features that can aid users in times of crisis. These include sending alert notifications to responders, providing crisis checklists, communication messaging, and ongoing crisis text messaging, presenting building maps for evacuations and rosters, and allowing for individual and broadcast video communications that are then recorded to the server.
To use the app, a login and password from the user’s organization are required. A web portal is used to update emergency plans and publish content to iPhones and iPads. Continuous improvement is achieved by validating an emergency plan using the crisis checklist during drills. CrisisGo makes an organization’s emergency plan actionable.
