ST. LOUIS, June 13, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Successfully responding to emergencies requires reliable communication. Combining the functionality of CrisisGo's rapid response alerts and notifications with a dedicated public safety communications network and reliable mobile and Internet of Things (IoT) devices, organizations can implement the "Gold Standard Response" in critical situations.
"There is great debate around nearly all aspects of school safety," said Dr. Joe Erardi, former superintendent of schools for Newtown, Connecticut and state Superintendent of the Year. "The ongoing dialogue is healthy; however, at times becomes the noise that leads to gridlock with school safety improvement. One focus area that is without debate and understood by all stakeholders is around response time during a crisis. There should be no gridlock and you must have the absolute best protocol in place. It is simply understood by all that optimal response time saves lives."
CrisisGo is introducing the Gold Standard Response in a free webinar Tuesday, June 18 at 2:00 pm Eastern Standard Time. The webinar is hosted by Dr. Erardi, who is now an advocate for school safety, and the critical need to have safety information updated and understood by all within the district and in partnership with local law enforcement, fire, emergency medical services and first responders. Dr. Erardi will share personal experiences that reinforce how valuable time is in an emergency, and detail how critical it is for school districts and local public safety agencies to be aligned to ensure optimum response in an emergency.

CrisisGo, the digital safety and emergency notification platform listed in the FirstNet App Catalog and available via the FirstNet App Catalog – can be used to trigger alerts and notifications when an emergency strikes. Using a dedicated network to avoid cell tower overload in crisis, the platform also facilitates reliable, two-way communication for first responders and school on-site safety team members and administrators.
"It is exciting and rewarding to be working with trusted partners to offer the Gold Standard Response," said Chris Vuillaume, General Manager for CrisisGo Inc. "We are committed to reducing response times and saving valuable seconds in an emergency. Combining what these technologies do best absolutely makes public safety stronger and safer through more reliable and available communication."
