Healthcare Workstation Challenges

Desktop Provisioning

Deployment of new desktop images and hardware for clinicians as well as consultants, contractors, and other temporary workers can be a costly and time-consuming process.

Application Migration and Updates

Clinical workstation. Nursing stations. Doctors mobile devices. As applications become more central to business operations, IT organizations are increasingly concerned with application stability, reliability and availability. What happens when a medical center’s main (EMR) application goes down? How do patients get the help they need if nurses can’t access the medical records? Disruption resulting from application migrations and updates can have a severe impact on quality of service and the bottom line.

Management complexity, inadequate infrastructure and a lack of administrative resources can make it difficult for companies to deliver consistent and scalable IT services to their remote offices in a timely manner.Operating Systems Migration, Migrating to a new OS like Vista or XP can overwhelm unprepared IT departments. With a traditional machine-based licensing model, hardware, applications and operating systems have been tightly coupled, leading to compatibility issues during OS upgrades or migration.
