NOHIMS will facilitate improvements in the quality of the Navy Occupational Safety and Health (NAVOSH) program and will enhance the delivery of occupational health services to Navy employees working in Navy industrial facilities...Software Description: The software is written in the MUMPS programming languages for implementation on an DEC VAX 8200 computer under the M/VX operating system.
