First Health Advisory Launches Resilience360 to Help Healthcare Organizations Sustain Operations and Protect Patient Care During Disruptions

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- First Health Advisory, a leader in healthcare cybersecurity strategy and risk management, launches Resilience360, a comprehensive operational resiliency program designed to help healthcare organizations sustain critical services during disruptions, strengthen operational continuity, and accelerate the return to normal operations while protecting patient care.

Healthcare organizations have invested significantly in disaster recovery, incident response, and emergency preparedness to strengthen their ability to respond to cyberattacks, technology outages, third party failures, and natural disasters. While these efforts are essential to restoring systems, many organizations have not fully validated how clinical and operation workflows will continue delivering care during system restoration. Resilience360 helps close that operational gap by validating people, processes, and workflows required to sustain operations throughout a disruption.

"Healthcare organizations do not need another framework. They need confidence that they can continue delivering care when disruption occurs," said Carter Groome, CEO of First Health Advisory. "Resilience360 helps organizations validate the operational capabilities that keep healthcare running, identify where operational risk truly exists, and build practical plans that enable care to continue regardless of what is causing the disruption."

Resilience360 gives organizations a validated plan to sustain care during disruptions and return to normal operations efficiently. The program evaluates critical business functions, clinical workflows, downtime procedures, key operational dependencies, recovery priorities, and the points where services begin to degrade. Organizations leave with a clear view of their operational readiness, recovery priorities, and the resources required to sustain continuity of care.

"Resilience360 went beyond reviewing our plans on paper. It helped us pressure test how our organization would actually respond when critical technology became unavailable, uncover dependencies and gaps we hadn't considered, and strengthen coordination across teams. That process gave us greater confidence in our ability to maintain operations and continue caring for patients through a disruption." shared Chief Digital & Information Officer, Southeastern Health System.

Designed as a flexible consulting engagement, Resilience360 meets healthcare organizations wherever they are in their operational resiliency journey. The program complements existing disaster recovery, incident response, and emergency preparedness efforts by validating operational plans, identifying operational dependencies, and strengthening the processes required to sustain patient care regardless of the source of disruption.

Rick LeMay, Chief Delivery Officer at First Health Advisory, added, "Healthcare organizations require more than recommendations. They need partners who understand how healthcare actually operates. Our multidisciplinary team brings together expertise across clinical operations, clinical engineering, cybersecurity, privacy, compliance, and healthcare consulting because sustaining patient care requires every one of these perspectives. Our breadth of experience helps organizations validate critical processes, strengthen operational continuity, and build confidence before disruption occurs."

Resilience360 is designed for hospitals, health systems, and other covered entities seeking to strengthen operational resiliency. Whether organizations are building foundational capabilities or validating mature continuity plans, the program provides a practical roadmap to sustain critical workflows, reduce operational risk, and protect patient care through any disruption.
