About G-LINE

Mission: To provide health care professionals and the general public with an authoritative, convenient, locally relevant web site to disseminate information about health care emergencies.

Sponsors: This site was created and is maintained through a collaboration between the East Central Health District offices of the state Health Department and the Medical College of Georgia, which serves as the Regional Coordinating Hospital for Region G. All 14 member hospitals of Region G contributed to the design of G-LINE and provide content on an ongoing basis.
