OVERVIEW
Patient Wi-Fi, digital imaging for radiology, and critical clinical systems such as electronic medical records all help to provide the best possible healthcare to the people of NSW. Designed to improve the experience of patients, families and staff, all of these innovative systems rely heavily on IT infrastructure to function at their optimum.
To ensure this can be achieved, the NSW Government’s Health Grade Enterprise Network (HGEN) projects aims to reduce IT complexity in hospitals by bringing together and replacing ageing and inconsistent local infrastructure in Local Health Districts (LHDs) and transitioning to an IaaS (infrastructure as-a-service) solution. The broader HGEN scope includes cabling plant, wired and wireless networking, distributed antenna system (DAS) infrastructure to support in-building mobile coverage and passive infrastructure.
Engaged to develop the HGEN Transition Playbook, Amalgamotion developed the full reference set for Local Health Districts / Entities to navigate the certification requirements of upgraded infrastructure as HGEN compliant and managing the transition to the as-a-service model.
