The specific requirements of healthcare facilities call for ad hoc IT infrastructure and can involve technical proposals that can be directly operational in the medical sphere.
An obligation to ensure uninterrupted service
But one central parameter must be addressed: the obligation to have a recovery and service continuity plan in a hospital environment that must be available around the clock. Other substantial obligations are a high level of data security for information processed in the network, rigorous authentication procedures for medical staff with job-related access, the requirement for a mobility strategy, and availability of healthcare staff services across the entire area covered.
These requirements call for storage capacity specific to the healthcare system (service continuity, data sharing, etc.) and therefore for substantial bandwidth between sites.
Because they work closely with us and are very familiar with the details of our organisation, the Axians teams were able to integrate the new IT infrastructure without requiring us to make organisational changes
Close to needs
Axians offers a broad range of solutions, from network infrastructure to data storage and analysis technologies. The example of Uroviva, a specialist Swiss urology clinic that works with ten medical practices in the Zurich region, is a perfect illustration of this ability to meet the needs of local customers.
“Because they work closely with us and are very familiar with the details of our organisation, the Axians teams were able to integrate the new IT infrastructure without requiring us to make organisational changes in our operations,” says Danja Flury, Practice Manager at Uroviva. The Axians Cloud solution is what our employees wanted and it has motivated them and freed up their time so they can focus more attention on essential responsibilities: patient contact and care.”
Lia Cohausz, Chief Clinic Operational at Uroviva, adds, “Thanks to the transfer of our IT to the Axians Cloud and to the comprehensive Workplace package, we were able to recover the flexibility and reliability that had been cruelly lacking. Our physicians and employees are extremely satisfied with this tool.”
