Hospital WiFi

Improving care and supporting clinicians with superior hospital WiFi access.

Hospital WiFi technology has become a critical part of efforts to achieve the goals of the Quadruple Aim framework: to increase quality of care, reduce costs and provide better experiences for patients and care teams.

With the emergence of health information technology such as electronic medical records (EMRs), digital medical imaging and medical workflow applications, hospital WiFi connectivity has taken on an essential role in providing quality care. Hospital WiFi access enables clinicians to move easily throughout a facility, using smart phones and tablets to take notes and access records rather than being tethered to stationary desktops. When hospital WiFi connections offer high bandwidth, ultra-fast speed and minimal latency, clinicians are better able to get the real-time data they need to make informed decisions about patient care.

Superior hospital WiFi also benefits visitors and can help to improve patient satisfaction. Patients and their families often spend hours in waiting rooms or days in hospital rooms, and hospital WiFi services help them stay connected to work, family, social circles, news and entertainment options.

But managing a hospital WiFi network for superior performance can be taxing for the limited resources of a hospital IT team. That’s where Spectrum Enterprise Managed WiFi solutions can help.
