A suspicious person posing as a “baby healer” was spotted at a
Children’s Hospital.
How ReddiNet Helped
Quick-thinking staff knew how these criminals operated. They
would show up at other area hospitals looking for a baby to
kidnap. Immediately, the staff at Children’s Hospital
alerted surrounding hospitals and counties through a
ReddiNet broadcast message containing a description of the
suspect. The very next day, another medical center in a
neighboring county responded that someone matching the
description was seen in their facility. Law enforcement was
called and apprehended the criminal.
A homeless person, monitored by a Public Health Department for an
infectious disease, went missing.
How ReddiNet Helped
The local EMS Agency sent a message through ReddiNet alerting
hospitals to report this patient, if found. A medical center in a
neighboring county responded to the message by reviewing its
patients. The patient had been brought to their hospital and was
safe. The medical center notified the responsible Public
Health Department. The case was transferred to the neighboring
county’s Public Health Department, ensuring ongoing tracking and
preventing the spread of disease.

A 26 foot privately owned power boat exploded in a local harbor.
Eight injured people were ejected and landed in the water. The
closest base hospital, Huntington Beach Hospital, went to work.
After notification from the fire department-which had begun a
rescue operation-the hospital quickly polled neighboring
hospitals via ReddiNet. This poll included trauma and burn
centers.
Immediate, delayed and minor capabilities were posted on ReddiNet
within minutes. Fire dispatch reviewed the hospitals open to
them, triaged and transported eight patients to four of the
responding hospitals with the exact capabilities needed.
Hospitals then utilized the ReddiNet patient locator feature to
post the arrivals and assist families and friends in identifying
where their loved ones were taken.
