Children's Wisconsin uses a message distribution system called Send Word Now to alert key individuals to events at our locations that have immediate and serious safety implications. Our employees and providers are automatically part of this system, and we encourage volunteers, contractors, vendors, students, and others who are at our facilities on a regular basis to sign up. We use other communication tools, including social media, to alert our patients and their families to critical situations.

Note that you will need to include the name and phone number of a Children's Hospital leader who can verify that it is appropriate to add your contact information to this system.
