What To Do When Disaster Strikes

Health IT Outcomes was at HIMSS15 in Chicago broadcasting live from the show floor and recording video with key exhibitors in order to provide you a glimpse into what many of healthcare's leading businesses and organizations were talking about. One of the people we were fortunate enough to speak with was Tanya Lin-Jones, National Manager, Emergency Response Team for Sprint.

In this video, Jones explains services Sprint provides to assist healthcare operations during times of emergencies and disasters. She provides an overview of Sprint’s role in helping when tornadoes ripped through the Midwest in April 2011 and details how Sprint assisted in Joplin, MO when patients were moved to a tent hospital in the parking lot due to the damage the hospital suffered.
