Haaga-Helia’s experience with Secapp highlights speed, ease of use and effective information sharing. With operations across several locations, the university of applied sciences needs practical ways to prepare for disruptions and respond quickly when an incident occurs.
Haaga-Helia is an international university of applied sciences with 11,000 students and 700 employees across Helsinki, Porvoo and Vierumäki, Finland. Large numbers of people move around its campuses every day, and preparedness must cover evacuations, sheltering in place, cybersecurity risks and various technical disruptions.
The video describes, for instance, a medical emergency during a lecture, when Secapp’s emergency button was used to call for assistance. Help arrived quickly, and CPR was started before first responders reached the scene. In urgent situations, the response needs to get underway quickly, and Secapp’s OneClick buttons provide a practical way to support this.
Sharing Information and Building Situational Awareness Quickly
The practical goal of preparedness is to ensure that an organisation can act when something happens. Haaga-Helia’s experience shows how everyday communication tools can support this: help can be called quickly, information can be shared and the response can begin.
Speed and ease of use are central to Haaga-Helia’s experience with Secapp. Sharing information quickly helps people develop a common understanding of the situation and supports their actions as events unfold. Initiating a response with a single button press also reduces the need to rely on numerous separate phone calls and messages during the early stages of an incident.
Haaga-Helia recommends Secapp particularly to organisations with large numbers of people and operations across multiple sites. In these environments, fast information sharing and shared situational awareness are important elements of ensuring safety for everyone on campus.
