INNOVATIVE APPLICATIONS FOR A NEXT-GENERATION HOSPITAL BASED ON A COMMUNICATION NETWORK BY SOITRON

Network
Health and care
The hospital in Michalovce is different from other health care facilities in Slovakia in terms of its organization, layout, and the technology used. Such a healthcare facility fitted with vast amounts of technologies unparalleled in Slovakia would not be able to operate without an exceptionally stable and secure high-availability computer network. To secure their communication infrastructure, the Svet zdravia hospital network has chosen Soitron, because it was able to meet strict quality criteria and offer a competitive price and guarantee extremely fast project implementation.
