Real-Time Communications for the Healthcare Industry

Assuring Patient and Practitioner Communications

Healthcare institutions face unique communication challenges. Their mission requires absolute reliability 24 x 7, with stringent disaster recovery plans.

Problem

Most organizations are actively embracing technology to lower costs, improve patient care and respond to their staff’s requests for mobility.  At the same time, these same organizations have thousands of analog lines for patient rooms, elevators, emergency notification systems and even modems that have to be maintained. 

Challenge

Simply upgrading legacy copper cabling to support IP can cost millions.  And of course, privacy and regulatory mandates demand enhanced security in dealing with communications and Electronic Records.

Solution

Juxto’s partner, Ribbon Communications has the privilege of supporting some of the world’s leading healthcare institutions including hospitals, medical arts facilities, research facilities and outpatient services.  Many include sprawling campuses with dozens of buildings, thousands of beds and tens of thousands of staff. These organizations have turned to Ribbon to enable:

  • Carrier-grade communications with five 9s reliability and geo-redundancy
  • Scalability that easily supports 5,000 or even 50,000 seats or more
  • High-density analog gateway support for patient rooms and legacy equipment
  • Military-grade encryption of media and signaling to secure communications
  • A Nortel heritage to upgrade legacy SL-100, CS2100 and CS1000 deployments
  • Innovative communication tools that enable practitioners to be mobile and fully connected
