Protecting Public Health

Public health departments function as monitors, researchers, and educators. In the event of a natural disaster, bioterrorist attack, or infectious disease outbreak, a rapid analysis and response could save hundreds or thousands of lives.

Your staff members must have the tools to spot trends and search for the causes behind the trends. You also must be able to quickly provide healthcare providers and the public guidance on what actions to take.

In these efforts, you can rely on SPSS Inc.’s versatile set of solutions. Their open architectures make them ideally suited to helping public health agencies and organizations. You can analyze data from many different sources, discover hidden associations and anomalies, and then interoperate with operational systems to alert medical facilities, first responders, and other government agencies.

An important tool of public health agencies is citizen surveys. SPSS offers survey research solutions for agencies of all sizes, from towns and townships up to the state and national level. Our solutions protect individual privacy while making it easy for your staff to efficiently develop survey instruments and collect information through a variety of cost-effective channels.
