Feel free to explore these tabs as you begin to familiarize yourself to your Resource Bridge.

Update information as needed.
First confirm that all the information in your profile is correct. This is what we have on file for you. Having up to date and accurate contact information is essential for prompt communication.

Responding to alerts
How to add staff
Contact: Public Health Preparedness
(707) Revised 1/31/2017

25. About Alerts You can receive alerts in four different ways:
Cell phone text message
message
Home screen/Pop-up message
Pager
We suggest that at minimum 1 or 2 Administrators have alerts sent to their cell phones so they can be notified of an event 24/7 and respond appropriately.
ImageTrend alerts are used to communicate with all of our healthcare facilities about current and impacting events. Ideally every facility will have a dedicated computer with ImageTrend constantly running. However, we know that every facility may not have this capability. For this reason, we suggest that each facility has at least 1 or 2 administrators with 24/7 communication capabilities via cell phone alerts. This will allow us to reach at least one representative of each facility who can relay the information to the actual facility should the representative be out of office.
To avoid ImageTrend Alerts becoming cumbersome or interruptive, the Alert System will not be used for regular and every day communication. Rather it will only be used for Actual Alerts and scheduled drills during normal business hours.
SNF/Urgent Cares/Clinics/Dialysis – receive & respond to monthly drills as a test to the system and practice for the HCFs.
