HOC Assessment & Planning

JJWild's Healthcare Operational Continuance consulting services include a full-range of offerings from assessment and planning, through implementation and testing. JJWild consultants have extensive experience in helping design and deploy appropriate technology solutions to safeguard system data and efficiently restore data center operations. We'll also work intimately with your staff to develop strategic plans that enable your organization to function as efficiently as possible in the absence of technology applications. We will help you identify and document all application and workflow processes including system recovery procedures, departmental downtime processes, vendor contact and support plans, and MEDITECH downtime reports.

Just as no two hospitals are alike, neither are your technology needs. It's important to have a continuance plan designed specifically for your organization that meets your operational goals and recovery objectives. Thanks to working with MEDITECH hospitals for the last 20 years, JJWild has a thorough understanding of how to customize your IT environment and Operational Continuance Plan to best meet your organization's needs and to create a level of preparedness that will help you prepare for the unknown and provide peace of mind to everyone involved.
