State launches ‘Business Finder’ app for emergencies

 

HARTFORD, Conn. – Connecticut residents can now have a database of pharmacies, dialysis centers and oxygen suppliers at their fingertips during an emergency, state officials announced Monday.

The state launched “Business Finder,” a web-based database that enables those businesses to update information in real time to help consumers access medicine, supplies or treatment during times when travel is difficult.

The site, at businessstatus.ct.gov, is mobile-optimized so it’s easy to view on smartphones as well as computers.
