AHA Solutions, Inc., a subsidiary of the American Hospital Association (AHA), awarded LiveProcess an exclusive AHA endorsement for its disaster readiness and incident command solutions for hospitals.

LiveProcess is a patented, centralized web-based platform that helps a hospital's emergency coordinator manage many aspects of a hospital's disaster preparedness plans and responses. LiveProcess is used by hundreds of hospitals across the country, and has been proven in the field in Joint Commission surveys, exercises and real events.

LiveProcess has helped healthcare executives standardize their emergency management program across single or multiple facilities, providing a new level of visibility, incident command, risk management and compliance. In today's healthcare environment, the operational cost savings and more rapid post-event recovery afforded by LiveProcess are important considerations. Most importantly, LiveProcess has worked with its healthcare clients to establish a new level of quality in their emergency management program that translates to improved patient, employee and community safety.

The AHA's comprehensive selection process, which lasted nearly a year, included an extensive review of the marketplace including customers and business partners. LiveProcess' ease-of-use, easy to reference customer base, expertise in emergency management, exclusive focus on healthcare, and commitment to the hospital's needs and customer satisfaction were key factors in its selection.

From risk evaluation, compliance and training to coordinated response, LiveProcess makes it easier and faster than ever to monitor and maintain a hospital's state of readiness. The platform makes even the most complex aspects of emergency preparedness and response simple and easy to manage. For the healthcare leader, in a single facility, region, or multi-facility healthcare system, LiveProcess provides a new level of standardization, visibility, reporting, risk management, operational efficiency and patient, employee and community safety.
