Health Care Solutions: Health Care Solutions for the modern world

THE CHALLENGE

Healthcare providers require some of the most advanced network, security, and integrated technology in the business world. In addition to sophisticated system requirements, networks must also be able to withstand the demands of a “twenty-four-seven,” high-traffic environment:

- Bandwidth-aggressive clinical applications. Laboratory and Imaging have placed greater demands on the network.
- Electronic Medical Records (EMR) at almost every level.
- Convergence, Presence, Mobility and Messaging are being implemented in healthcare globally.

THE NIC SOLUTION

Our staff has the technical knowledge to design and install complex systems for optimal efficiency.  Before we install any equipment in your facility, we work with you to understand how you operate today, how will operate tomorrow and how you will operate in 5 years. We want to ensure your systems are reliable and are designed for maximum uptime based on your real business operations.

We know that even the slightest interruption in any of the major network systems can have irreversible consequences.  One of the most important aspects of evaluating technology decisions is to take a holistic approach to the organization. Knowing how information moves inside and outside of your network is critical. Evaluating “single-points” of technology alone can have serious consequences to how your staff communicates. We work proactively with our customers to understand common pitfalls of technology advice in the healthcare vertical. By working with you to understand your operational needs, we can design a Total Solution that fits your budget today and will grow with you tomorrow.
NIC offers an integrated approach to your voice, video and data needs. Data is at the core of your network needs, but advances in voice and video technology are now allowing organizations to see faster returns on investment and lower total costs of ownership.   As a specialist in Unified Communications, Wireless LAN, Network and Physical Security, Fixed Broadband Wireless, Microsoft Design and Core Network Infrastructure, NIC is uniquely qualified to address complex, multi-discipline technology projects.

/></div><p>Providing a highly responsive and resilient healthcare environment that enables timely and accurate decisions that improve quality, safety, and affordability of healthcare is NIC’s primary objective. <br /> We understand the importance of implementing systems that maintain patient privacy and data integrity. Our expert networking engineers can integrate the latest in intrusion protection technology into your network keeping patient information private and alerting you of potential intrusion threats when they happen so you can act immediately to mitigate record theft.</p> <p>Through new wireless applications and secure access systems, authorized hospital staff can access patient information anywhere they need it. With seamless wireless connectivity, your entire facility becomes the work desk, the patient file, or the collaboration room bringing your health specialists together no matter where they are on your network. <br />  <br /> A Unified Communications system allows authorized staff to communicate by phone, by Instant Message, by mobile device, and by video that can be monitored, recorded, and tracked to ensure the highest in patient confidentiality requirements. Paging and Intercom can also be leveraged over your network enabling all-call, zone specific and pre-programmed announcements to your staff, patients and guests.<br />  <br /> You can protect your staff, patients and guests with a monitoring system as versatile as your patients’ needs. Cameras can be used to monitor activity and ensure security on your campus and they can be used as a service enhancement tool to monitor critical patients from a central nursing station between room visits. Door access control can further secure your campus by managing where individuals can go. Access panels can even be linked to security camera monitoring and alerts for high security needs.<br />  <br /> Few fields are as specialized as the medical field. That is why the sooner NIC is involved, the better we can design and implement an integrated system that improves your organization’s processes and your ability to provide the best available service to your patients. Additionally, early involvement ensures systems can be efficiently and economically upgraded to keep pace with technological advances. <br />  <br /> As a total data communication systems integrator with 14 years of experience, NIC can help you solve your defined business problems through an advanced technology network. The only solution is a Total Solution tailored to your needs.</p></span><span name=
A Holistic Approach:
Technology Planning
What are the plans and priorities for your organization in the next year? The next three years?
Continuous Coverage
Have you implemented mobile applications and communications? How many of your caregivers are using mobile healthcare applications and communications today?
Asset Control
Do you have a need to locate medical devices with an active RFID wireless network (mobile assets, patients, staff, medication, materials)?
Application Integration
What healthcare applications are most critical for you: PCS/e-radiology, electronic health records, collaborative care?
Network Bandwidth
Do you need to extend high-resolution images and content outside the imaging center wall?
Secure Network Connectivity
Are you concerned with the security and privacy of patient information?
