Welcome to R-S-I! I am the Chief Medical Officer and Senior Vice President; I provide strategic leadership, vision, insight, and medical direction for our organization. At R-S-I our approach is focused on local, practical, sustainable preparedness and response actions following Best Practices. Healthcare entities have been challenged with emerging threats from a variety of sources including: preparing for infectious diseases like MERS Co-V, Ebola, and Influenza to Chemical-Biological-Radiological-Nuclear-Explosive (CBRNE) threats all arising because of terrorism or environmental accidents or natural disasters. The healthcare industry has had major developments and organizations like R-S-I can condense the knowledge gained to fast track readiness and recovery from tomorrow’s disasters.
R-S-I understands that education is the foundation of higher knowledge, but experience is our best teacher. That’s why we have reached out to real world subject matter experts (SMEs) and through those relationships, cultivated an educational program that’s informative, practical, and includes real world tactics and strategies for managing incidents and events that impact patients and organizations. Our staff has taken advantage of these educational opportunities tapping into expertise and experience from all corners of healthcare management from Emory University, National Institutes of Health, Centers for Disease Control, United States Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases, and more. When your staff’s safety and your patients care are at stake, no videos or manuals are good enough. You need hands on training and real subject matter expertise. The R-S-I courses bring an ideal mixture of didactic and practical learning to ensure healthcare staff are exposed to not only the knowledge of what to do, but how to do it with SME oversight from staff who have been there. Contact R-S-I for more information and don’t let your staff’s practical knowledge start and stop at a video.
