BR General Receives Flood of Patients; PHNS Helps Baton Rouge Hospital Maintain Communications

BATON ROUGE, La., Aug 31, 2005 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- As New Orleans hospitals are forced to evacuate, major trauma and critical care hospitals in Louisiana are being deluged with patients. One of those is Baton Rouge General (www.brgeneral.org) which is operating on generator power and crowding patients into every available unused space in the hospital.

The efforts were spearheaded by PHNS (www.phns.com), the hospital's Dallas-based IT outsourcing company, and at least three other companies that are sending solutions to BR.
