Williston Basin School District #7 needed a more reliable way to connect staff during urgent scenarios. With 11 campuses and a six-person nursing team, the district’s response process often depended on front office staff, individual phone calls, and responders answering calls from unknown numbers.
After implementing Raptor’s Emergency Management software, Williston Basin used Raptor Alert’s Team Assist feature to move from one-to-one phone calls to a fast, reliable, shared alerting system. The district can now build customized alerts around student needs, campus layouts, and incident types.
Team Assist helped Williston Basin
During a sudden cardiac event, a teacher activated Team Assist, quickly coordinating support from the SRO, nurse, administrators, and emergency medical services. Staff provided CPR and used an automated external defibrillator while administrators helped direct responders to the student’s location, provided automatically at the time of the alert.
Thanks to the quick, lifesaving care the response team was able to provide, the student made the transition to the hospital safely and eventually made a full recovery.
