Now Available to All First Responders: is a Free, Confidential Health Assessment, Summarizing Smoke and Mental Health Risks

LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, February 27, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- A Resource for All First Responders
In response to growing health risks California’s first responders face, FirstResponderRegistry.org has launched a free, secure health registry platform offering comprehensive evaluations and streamlining their access to care. Designed to address critical health concerns—including smoke exposure, mental health, chronic pain, and other long-term risks—this initiative ensures first responders receive the information they need to protect both their health, enabling them to support the communities they serve.

A Holistic Approach to First Responder Health
The platform emphasizes early detection and preventive care, especially after increasing wildfire-related incidents and high-stress emergencies. The Registry provides free, confidential health assessments focused on physical and mental well-being to all first responders and support personnel.

Free, Private, and Secure Health Assessments
The Registry, hosted on the Google Health Cloud, prioritizes data security while enabling responders to access their health records privately. The platform will use de-identified data for population health analytics, helping public health officials and care providers identify trends and develop proactive strategies to safeguard responder health.

Simplified Access to Expert Assessments
FirstResponderRegistry.org connects users with information aligned with their health needs and that they can share with their care providers. By eliminating common barriers to care, the platform ensures that responders can easily access relevant treatments, support services, and medical guidance.

Key Features of the Platform:
• AI-Enhanced Health Insights – Targeted assessments for mental health, chronic pain, burn pit exposure, and traumatic brain injury (TBI) symptoms.
• Long-term Health Assessments – Continuous health data tracking to detect trends and enable early intervention.
• Providing Information Addressing Urgent and Long-Term Health Risks

Risks to First Responders
First responders face complex health risks daily—from smoke inhalation during wildfire season to the emotional toll of high-stress emergency response. A 2023 report by the American Lung Association underscored the lasting impact of burn pit exposure on respiratory health, emphasizing the need for continuous monitoring.

“The risks faced by our first responders are multi-faceted, from toxic exposure to the mental health toll of their work,” said Michael Byer, of M3. “FirstResponderRegistry.org offers a clear path to data showing the need for early intervention, helping insure these heroes receive the care they deserve.”

Yusuf Henriques, CEO of IndyGeneUS AI, highlighted the platform’s importance in addressing long-term health threats: “Exposure to burn pits and wildfire smoke can have severe health consequences. This platform equips first responders with the resources and monitoring necessary to safeguard their well-being.”

Mental health remains a critical focus. First responders consistently face higher rates of PTSD, anxiety, and depression. By integrating mental health assessments, the platform helps identify and address these challenges early.

“First responders operate under immense pressure, often at the cost of their health,” said Dr. Gerald Hurowitz, CMO of M3 Information. “This registry empowers them with actionable health insights to manage their well-being better.”

A Streamlined Path to Better Health
Through a quick, six-minute assessment, responders receive personalized health profiles, highlighting potential risks and recommending follow-up care. The platform encourages collaboration among healthcare providers using anonymized data to strengthen public health strategies and improve first responder care nationwide.

Focusing on prevention and early intervention, FirstResponderRegistry.org ensures California’s first responders can access the necessary resources during their careers and beyond.

The Registry will be curated by;
M3 – Pioneers in mental health research and validated health assessment tools.
