MOBILE VIBRATORY ALERT SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR LOGGING ALERT TRANSMISSIONS AND RECEPTION OF ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

摘要

A method and apparatus logs alerts and response to alerts for members of an organization. When an alert message is transmitted to a user (i.e. the user's communication device), the alert activity is logged in a record. When the user acknowledges the alert, or fails to respond to the alert, the result is also logged. As such the organization can enforce compliance with alerting procedures and actions to be taken upon receiving an alert message.
