Purpose
Creation of an example ASU Safe & Well Webpage as part of DPEM Informatics Project .
Serves as a means to demonstrate to ASU officials and DPEM students how a simple webpage could be created and added to the ASU portal for Safe & Well or other similar status notification. Allows for concerned loved ones all across the world to search for ASU registrants posted messages, to see that they are safe in the event of a disaster.
Impact if implemented
Would provide ASU students, faculty, family, & friends an alternate means of status notification in the event of a disaster.
Would be beneficial to all students if a disaster occurred on or off campus.
Would be beneficial to students studying & traveling outside of the country if a disaster occurs because it would provide a known area for those concerned to check status.
Would indirectly familiarize students with The American Red Cross Safe & Well service.
Future Implications
Could be advertised for community wide use. Designated Safe & Well stations could be set up to allow those without phone capability in the community to register and update status as needed.
Summary
Creation of an example ASU Safe & Well Webpage as part of DPEM Informatics Project will demonstrate to ASU officials and DPEM students how a simple webpage could be created and added to the ASU portal for Safe & Well or other similar status notification.
Allows for concerned loved ones all across the world to search for ASU registrants posted messages, to see that they are safe in the event of a disaster. Will be accomplished by utilizing the American Red Cross Safe & Well database.
