Royal Caribbean Group reinvents cruise industry’s safety drill

July 24, 2020

– New patented approach helps guests sail away smoothly

– Technology licensed to other cruise lines to help eliminate crowding

MIAMI, July 24, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Royal Caribbean Group is replacing one of the least-loved but most important parts of a cruise vacation – the safety drill – with Muster 2.0™, an entirely new approach to delivering safety information to guests. The innovative program, the first of its kind, reimagines a process originally designed for large groups of people into a faster, more personal approach that encourages higher levels of safety.

With Muster 2.0, the key elements of the safety drill – including reviewing what to expect and where to go in case of an emergency, and instructions on how to properly use a life jacket – will be accessible to guests on an individual basis instead of a group approach that has been followed historically. New technology, eMuster™, will be used to help provide the information to guests via their mobile devices and interactive stateroom TVs. Travelers will be able to review the information at their own time prior to setting sail, eliminating the need for the traditional large group assemblies. The new approach also enables everyone on board to maintain better spacing as guests move about the ship, and it allows guests to enjoy more of their vacation with no interruption.

After reviewing safety information individually, guests will complete the drill by visiting their assigned assembly station, where a crew member will verify that all steps have been completed and answer questions. Each of the steps will need to be completed prior to the ship’s departure, as required by international maritime law.

“The health and safety of our guests and crew are our number one priority, and the development of this new muster process is an elegant solution to an outdated, unpopular process,” said Richard Fain, chairman and CEO, Royal Caribbean Group. “The fact that this will also save guests time and allow the ship to operate without pause means that we can increase health, safety and guest satisfaction simultaneously.”

“Muster 2.0 represents a natural extension of our mission to improve our guests’ vacation experiences by removing points of friction,” said Jay Schneider, Royal Caribbean Group’s senior vice president of digital. “In this instance, what’s most convenient for our guests is also the safest option in light of needing to reimagine social spaces in the wake of COVID-19.”

This marks the first dramatic change to the safety drill process in a decade, since Royal Caribbean’s Oasis of the Seas moved the life jackets from guest staterooms to the muster stations, which improved the evacuation process and has been widely followed throughout the industry. More than a year in the making, Muster 2.0 is also an initiative that will be part of the comprehensive set of protocols and procedures Royal Caribbean Group is developing along with the Healthy Sail Panel that was recently assembled in collaboration with Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd.

“This new process represents the kind of innovation that the Healthy Sail Panel is focusing on as part of its mission to enhance the health and safety of cruising,” said former Utah Gov. Mike Leavitt, co-chair of the Healthy Sail Panel. “It shows that we can accomplish a lot if we try to think outside the box on safety.”

“I’d like to extend my congratulations to Royal Caribbean Group on this innovative milestone. It’s exactly what our industry needs during these unprecedented times and we appreciate the generous offer to participate in this innovation,” said Frank Del Rio, President and CEO, Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd. “In this industry, we all work cooperatively to enhance health and safety, and this is an example of that.”

The distributed muster for ocean-going vessels concept is patented in the United States and is patent-pending in major markets around the world, including the various cruise industry flag states. The company has also worked with international regulators, the U.S. Coast Guard and other maritime and government authorities to ensure it meets all safety requirements.

In addition to introducing the new process on the ships of its own cruise lines – Royal Caribbean International, Celebrity Cruises and Azamara – Royal Caribbean Group is offering to license the patented technology to interested cruise operators and will waive patent license fees during the time the world and industry battle the global pandemic. Patent licenses have already been granted to the company’s joint venture, TUI Cruises GmbH, as well as Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd., the parent company of Norwegian Cruise Line, Oceania Cruises and Regent Seven Seas Cruises.

Muster 2.0 was first tested on Royal Caribbean’s Symphony of the Seas in January 2020. Guests who took part in the mock process indicated a strong preference for the new approach and also reported better comprehension and retention of the safety information.

Dahua Technology Launches Retail Epidemic Safety Protection Solution To Enhance Store Operation Safety Under COVID-19

KINGSTON, Jamaica, July 24, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — A recent report from AP News shows that a lot of major non-essential retailers worldwide have been affected by COVID-19. According to Neil Saunders, Managing Director of GlobalData Retail, more than 190,000 stores have temporarily closed, accounting for nearly 50% of U.S. retail square footage. At the same time, Swedish fashion retailer H&M also implied that after temporarily closing 3,441 of its 5,062 stores globally, it may be forced to lay off some employees permanently. How to survive during the pandemic and take effective prevention and control measures after work resumption has become a major consideration for retailers across the globe.

In response to the challenges facing the retail industry, Dahua Technology, a world-leading video-centric smart IoT solution and service provider, has launched a professional Retail Epidemic Safety Protection Solution to help retailers maintain safe operations and improve business efficiency during the pandemic, as well as providing upgraded plans to increase ROI after business resumption.

Featuring thermal body temperature monitoring and customer flow control, the Dahua Retail Epidemic Safety Protection Solution combines two technological advantages enabled by AI to provide double value for retailers, assisting in slowing the spread of the virus while creating a safe in-store shopping experience for customers.

The Dahua thermal body temperature monitoring camera allows highly accurate body temperature monitoring of ±0.3℃ (with blackbody). With built-in AI algorithm, it can simultaneously monitor a group of people from up to 3-meter distance, enabling fast and non-contact access. When installed at the entrances of supermarkets and shopping malls, it can help retailers with preliminary screening of employees and customers with abnormal body temperature. It notifies users to take corresponding measures before the temperatures change significantly, thereby enabling the appropriate protocol and conducting a second verification by medical professionals if necessary.

For retailers who require limited customer flow during the pandemic, the Dahua AI-empowered people counting camera can automatically and accurately calculate the real-time number of people entering the store, avoiding congestion and helping to mitigate the spread of the pandemic. When the number of shoppers exceeds the set value, the device will alarm and will display on the digital signage at the entrance of the store that the number of people inside is full, reminding customers to wait at the door. No extra employees are needed to count customers manually at the door, which can help retailers reduce labor costs and improve their management efficiency.

L.A. Care Health Plan, Blue Shield of California Promise Health Plan to Distribute 7,000 Backpacks and School Supplies to Students

July 24, 2020

0

LOS ANGELES, July 24, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — While many students in Los Angeles County will not return to in-person classes this fall due to COVID-19, they will still need school supplies. In fact, some therapists say it’s important to continue the regular back-to-school traditions, like shopping for a backpack and school supplies to give children a feeling of normalcy. Unfortunately, one in five children in the U.S. lives in poverty, and families are struggling to put food on the table because of pandemic-related job losses. For many, school supplies are simply too much.

That’s why L.A. Care Health Plan and Blue Shield of California Promise Health Plan are holding seven Back-to-School Drive-Thru events through their Community Resource Centers network. Three of the events will be combined with food pantries.

“As we approach the new school year, we anticipate challenges will continue as children face an extended distance learning period,” said Francisco Oaxaca, Chief of Communications and Community Relations, L.A. Care Health Plan. “We want to do everything we can to ensure that the most under-resourced children have the best chance to thrive and succeed in school. And something as simple as having the right school supplies may help give them that.”

At each of the seven drive-thru events, the health plans will distribute 1,000 backpacks filled with school supplies, and local nonprofit Access Books will distribute 100 tote bags stuffed with three children’s books featuring positive, uplifting stories to help young readers cope with the stresses caused by the pandemic.

“Regardless of what returning to school may look like this year, we know students will need the necessary materials to succeed,” said Kellie Todd Griffin, Senior Director, Community and Provider Engagement, Blue Shield of California Promise Health Plan. “Many families are in need during this difficult time, and we are committed to be a resource by providing backpacks, filled with essential school supplies, to help alleviate additional burdens as they prepare for the start of the school year.”

In September of last year, L.A. Care and Blue Shield Promise announced a combined investment of $146 million dollars as part of a five-year commitment to expand Community Resource Centers across Los Angeles County. This unique collaboration will help improve health outcomes in local communities and the total quality of life for members of the two health plans. Each center will connect members from both plans and the Los Angeles community to classes and personalized services that will address social needs and keep them active, healthy and informed.

The Back-to-School events are an extension of that goal. Four events will be hosted by the health plans’ jointly operated Community Resource Centers, and three will be hosted by L.A. Care Family Resource Centers. Below are the dates and locations for the Back-to-School Drive-Thru events:

Dr. Carlos Ramos’s New Book ¿Dañará La Religión La Vida De La Gente? An Astute Guide On The Misguidance Of Religious Preaching Convoluted By Mundane Ideas

July 24, 2020

LOS ANGELES, July 24, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Dr. Carlos Ramos said this about his book: “True freedom exists by applying things correctly, which contracts the obligation to be obedient to certain principles.

UMass Online Launches 34 High Demand Online Degree and Certificate Programs

July 23, 2020

0

BOSTON, July 23, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — UMass Online launched 34 fully online degree and certificate programs since the beginning of FY20, the latest in the university’s continued commitment to world-class online educational offerings. The new programs include a mix of undergraduate and graduate certificates, bachelor’s degrees, master’s degrees and a doctorate within STEM, health care, business and criminal justice. The launch of these new programs comes on the heels of a major partnership announcement between UMass Online and Mass General Brigham, the state’s largest private employer, through which UMass Online will develop degree completion programs specifically for MGB employees.

“With unemployment at a record high, the University of Massachusetts is responding by creating access to programs that will contribute to a robust economic recovery,” UMass System Chancellor of Academic Programs Katherine Newman said. “Adding fully online degree and certificate programs in areas with projected employment growth will help professionals navigate careers in a shifting workforce.”

“Our responsibility to the Commonwealth, higher education and adult learners is to provide pathways to completion that provide learners with confidence and security,” said UMass Online CEO Don Kilburn. “As employers focus on filling skills gaps across the country unemployed and working professionals are seeking pathways to secure employment and career advancement.”

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics Commissioner’s Statement on the Employment Situation, the unemployment rate was 11.1 percent nationally as of July 2, 2020.

The BLS data also highlights a stark disparity in employment resiliency between college-educated and non-college-educated workers that was present before the COVID-19 pandemic which has since been exacerbated. In June of 2020, 16.6 percent of those without a high school diploma were unemployed, along with 12.1 percent of those with a high school diploma. Meanwhile, 6.9 percent of those with a bachelor’s degree or higher were unemployed.

In addition to the online degree and certificate programs UMass Online currently offers, its new programs provide more opportunity for those seeking to either upskill within their chosen fields or adapt to new career paths during and beyond the pandemic.

UMass Amherst

UMass Boston

UMass Dartmouth

UMass Lowell

According to the National Student Clearinghouse, there are 36 million Americans with postsecondary education and training who have not completed their program and are no longer enrolled.

UMass Online has recently renewed its focus on providing new and expedited pathways to degree completion opportunities for those with prior college credit.

“Thousands of working adults will benefit from expanded UMass online programming,” said Chancellor Newman. “We are committed to ensuring that Massachusetts citizens have access to world-class, affordable and accessible programs that are aligned with the needs of our economy and our business community.”

In January, U.S. News & World Report ranked UMass Online programs prominently in its annual Best Online Colleges list, with UMass Amherst and UMass Lowell having the top two online bachelor’s programs in New England for the second consecutive year.

All four UMass undergraduate campuses were rated in the top category of U.S. News & World Report’s Best Colleges rankings for the fourth consecutive year in 2019, making UMass one of the few university systems in the nation to have each campus so acclaimed. For the fifth straight year, UMass was named to Reuters’ list of the World’s Most Innovative Universities, ranking 63rd globally and 33rd among U.S. institutions.

Adult learners can earn undergraduate or graduate degrees and certificates either fully online, on-campus or through blended learning options. A complete list of degree and certificate programs can be found at UMass Online. To view the catalog of 4,000 courses available, visit online courses.

About UMass Online:
UMass Online, the online learning consortium of the University of Massachusetts, provides marketing and technology support for UMass’ online offerings that enable students, professionals, and lifelong learners to take courses anywhere, anytime.

CHA Social Media Campaign Encourages Public to Wear Masks

July 23, 2020

WASHINGTON, July 23, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The Catholic Health Association of the United States (CHA) is collaborating with its members and partner organizations in promoting the #LoveThyNeighbor social media campaign that encourages the wearing of masks in public as a way to slow the spread of the coronavirus.

“Wearing a mask is about caring for your friends and neighbors and follows Christ’s simple commandment to love one another. It’s an easy, safe and effective way to protect everyone and promote the common good,” said Sr. Mary Haddad, RSM, the president and CEO of CHA. “Wearing a mask as recommended by health officials can make a big difference in slowing the transmission of COVID-19, which is critically important while a vaccine is being developed.”

CHA has created a microsite – www.chausa.org/masks – where the public can download images and animated GIF and MP4 files in English and Spanish to share on social media. The animations present a series of myths and facts designed to clarify some of the misinformation about wearing masks. The webpage also provides links to useful information, resources and articles about the importance of wearing masks in public during the pandemic.

Catholic hospitals, health systems and sponsoring congregations that are members of CHA started sharing the campaign on their social media channels earlier this month. Among other organizations joining CHA in promoting the #LoveThyNeighbor campaign is the Association of Catholic Colleges and Universities (ACCU). “In a pandemic, everyone holds an ethical responsibility for one another. It’s love of neighbor, good science and good health all rolled into one,” said Rev. Dennis H. Holtschneider, CM, president of the ACCU.

To learn more about how several CHA members such as Ascension, CommonSpirit Health, Bon Secours Mercy Health, CHRISTUS and Mercy are using various strategies and tactics to encourage the use of masks by the public, please see this article from Catholic Health World.

The Catholic Health Association of the United States is the national leadership organization of the Catholic health ministry, representing the largest nonprofit provider of health care services in the nation.

1 in 7 patients in the U.S. is cared for in a Catholic hospital each day.
Catholic health care, which includes more than 2,200 hospitals, nursing homes, long-term care facilities, systems, sponsors, and related organizations, serves the full continuum of health care across our nation.
