Partner Success with Peoplesafe and HCA

Peoplesafe Secures Major Deployment of Peoplesafe Alert for HCA Healthcare UK

Callmy is pleased to announce that Peoplesafe, one of its trusted distribution partners, has secured a significant new contract with HCA Healthcare UK for the Peoplesafe Alert Mass Notification Service, which is developed by Callmy.

The service will be deployed to 12,000 members of HCA Healthcare’s UK-based staff, strengthening the organisation’s ability to communicate rapidly and reliably during critical incidents.

The deployment forms part of HCA Healthcare’s wider programme to enhance emergency preparedness and cyber security resilience, whilst also modernising legacy communications, by replacing radio pagers that are still in use in parts of the organisation.

Peoplesafe Alert provides a robust, multi-channel mass notification capability, enabling HCA Healthcare to quickly reach all staff with time-critical information during emergency situations, site lockdowns or system outages. The platform supports secure, auditable communications and aligns with the increasing need for resilient digital alerting solutions within healthcare environments.

This contract reflects the growing demand across the healthcare sector for reliable and scalable mass notification services, as organisations seek to improve safety, comply with Martyn’s Law, and ensure continuity of care during incidents.

Callmy is proud to support Peoplesafe in delivering this solution and to play a role in helping HCA Healthcare UK protect its people and operations through the use of its modern emergency communication technology.

Callmy Proud To Support FANY(PRVC) Event

Callmy were delighted to support the First Aid Nursing Yeomanry (Princess Royal’s Volunteer Corps) at their recent demonstration evening held at their Wellington Barracks HQ.

The event gave their supporters, the recipients of the Corps’ capabilities, employers of Corps members and other guests a chance to see how the FANY (PRVC) deploys, reacts and operates in times of crisis.

The demonstration was set against a real-life scenario and the Corps used their Callmy Alert service to illustrate how it supports the FANY’s rapid emergency deployment, and the mobilisation of their key capabilities. These include:

First Aid
Casualty Bureau
Emergency Rest Centre
Military Operations Room

The event was a great success and the attendees enjoyed the opportunity to view, first-hand, the vital work the FANY’s deliver.

About the FANY (PRVC)

The First Aid Nursing Yeomanry (Princess Royal’s Volunteer Corps), founded in 1907, is an all-female voluntary organisation which deploys multi-faceted rapid response teams to support civil and military authorities in times of crisis.

Callmy Announce New SMS Broadcast Service

We are pleased to announce the Callmy Alert service now supports a new SMS broadcast feature.

What does the SMS feature provide?

As an alternative to sending messages to user’s Callmy Alert app, you can now also send messages to their mobile as SMS.

Why has SMS been introduced into the service?

We recognise there are some scenarios where you have the responsibility to deliver important messages to end users, but it’s not always practical to install an app on their phone – such as visitors to your sites or temporary contractors – this may currently be a consideration with your plans for Martyn’s Law.

If you now simply add user’s mobile number, via the Callmy Alert Portal, and allocate them to an appropriate message group, they become part of your emergency communication community. In a scenario where you need to lockdown a site or warn of an imminent threat, you know your regular users will receive messages via the app (installed on their phone, table tablet or desktop) and your more informal contacts will be alerted via SMS.

A premium service

As the service will be used for critical situations where a fast response is required, from potentially a large number of users, having a reliable service with none of the normal bottlenecks is vital. We have engineered a carrier class service with a high degree of capacity, with the intelligence to navigate around potential network disruption.

From a resilience perspective the SMS service also creates a useful fallback channel that overcomes situations where data connectivity is lost, possibly due to a cyber-attack, or just isn’t available.

How fast is the delivery?

We have operationalised a “Carrier Class” SMS gateway to support the delivery. Messages are delivered at a rate of 1,000 per second and being carrier class, high levels of resilience and performance are introduced.

We hope you find this feature useful and please contact us to discuss your requirements.

Martyn’s Law Webinar

We are pleased to be supporting an IFSEC webinar on the new “Martyn’s Law Protect Duty” with our our partner Peoplesafe.

With the recently published Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Bill, also known as Martyn’s Law, the government have finally started to outline what is expected of Publicly Accessible Locations (PALs). Organising a response and communicating clearly was one of the key issues outlined in the enquiry and is now part of the draft bill.

Communicating across an organisation to ensure the command teams are mobilised quickly and effectively is a vital part to reacting well to a crisis, as is getting the right type of communication to every level of your organisation. With clearer outlines in this draft bill on what is expected by PALs, it is now something that will come more into focus for all those affected by this forthcoming legislation.

When you attend this webinar, you will learn:

The key expectations from the draft bill
What the bill expects from PALs with regard to communication
How to mobilise and communicate to different response levels across an organisation
How to ensure all communications are clear and consistent
Ways to audit communications
Best practice from a real-life case study
