Emergency and Crisis Management: Keeping Schools Safe with CareHawk
Lockdown and Critical Alerts: Fast, Reliable, and Effective
When emergencies occur it is critical to act quickly and efficiently. Our Lockdown and Critical Alerts technology is used in any situation that may arise at your institution so staff can rely on automated processes so they can focus on student and staff safety. You can feel secure knowing that your school has a robust and alert system with CareHawk, allowing you to respond quickly to emergencies.
Key Features
Instant Alerts:
To make sure that everyone on campus is aware of potential hazards and can take appropriate action, our single-touch alert stations and prerecorded messaging instantly alert everyone with calm and clear audio and visual instructions.
Customized Alerts:
Adapt alerts to certain circumstances so that you can convey the precise type of emergency—a lockdown, fire, or bad weather, for example. Use the default tones and alerts or create custom alerts and prerecorded messages consistent with your schools’ emergency needs and protocols.
Several Channels of Communication:
Our system uses a variety of channels, such as phones, digital displays, speakers, and intercoms, to deliver notifications.
Lockdown Acknowledgement:
Classroom check-ins during lockdown events highlight areas of concern for first responders on the school floor plan, enabling a more informed response.
How it works
Instant Information
Real-time feedback is available to teachers and staff via classroom speakers and intercoms, messaging displays, and mobile devices, allowing them to make informed decisions and execute emergency protocols.
Visual Dashboard for Monitoring: An intuitive floorplan-based dashboard enables administrative staff to monitor the status and evolution of lockdowns, facilitating prompt and well-informed decision-making.
Alyssa’s Law Compliance: Meeting Safety Regulations Head-On
