Technology is challenging healthcare faster than almost any other sector. Information of all types is being converted into digital form, promising instant access to everything from autopsy reports to X-ray images. At the same time video consultation, remote diagnosis and even remote controlled procedures are becoming a reality, helping to make optimum use of specialist expertise.
Some of the key issues facing the Heathcare industry are:
- Instant access to patient records and test results
- Mobility for doctors, consultants over large campus areas.
- High quality images requiring large bandwidth networks to cope with the file sizes
- Automated systems such as Pharmacy dispensing, tracking and managing medical supplies.
- Old infrastructures with historical buildings and potential hazards such as asbestos
- Facilities distributed across large geographical areas, i.e. Hospital campus and clinics, regional heath authorities.
To bring healthcare into the 21st century will only be possible with the right network infrastructure. Planning the right communication system which will support applications today and those of the future.
