Major Incident App

The Major Incident App (MIA) was created by Manchester Foundation Trust NHS and developed by Desap Enterprises Ltd. MIA is aimed at any personnel on an on-call / emergency roster for major incidents.

Uniquely designed and enabled with Critical Alert permissions, MIAs major elements include;

• Bypass silent and Do Not Disturb modes on users’ phone to ensure critical alerts are never missed
• The standard messaging feature for continued major incident communications
• Confirm your availability to attend and log your estimated time of arrival (ETA)
• Invitation only system
• Sleek in design and easy to use

Launched in 2020, the benefits of MIA include;

• Critical alerts to ensure maximum response rate for incidents
• ETA specific (ensure your major incident team can be where you need them – when you need them)
• Secure access
• Managed by a bespoke admin system for clear audit trails and robust governance

MIA was designed in conjunction with medical professionals with first-hand major incident experience and uses cutting edge technology to aid emergency readiness and benefit public safety.
