Greater Baltimore Medical Center Uses 3n Mass Notification System for Emergency Communication, Staff Recalls, and Joint Commission Compliance

GLENDALE, CA -- Greater Baltimore Medical Center (GBMC) is using the 3n mass notification system from 3n (National Notification Network), the leading mass notification system provider, to automate emergency and routine communications with employees. Recognized in U.S. News & World Report’s “America’s Best Hospitals” nine times as one of the Top 50 hospitals in the United States for cancer care, digestive disorders, gynecology and otolaryngology, GBMC uses the 3n system for all its large-scale communication needs, including assembling executives for Joint Commission visits, staffing the emergency room during shortages, running decontamination team drills, performing annual callbacks, and managing maintenance and grounds activities.

“3n has completely revolutionized our response rate to emergencies,” explained Linda Henning, Telecommunications Manager for GBMC. “Due to our proximity to Washington, D.C. and the U.S. Army Garrison Aberdeen Proving Ground, terrorism is never far from our minds. A reliable, secure, always-available emergency communication system is a critical component of GBMC’s emergency plan, which is why we chose 3n. The 3n system is exceptionally secure and did not require GBMC to purchase or maintain any equipment or additional phone lines. Additionally, the 3n system is extremely user-friendly and enables us to save an immense amount of time in contacting our staff with one call instead of many people making many calls.”
