When it comes to the trends, truths, and considerations for the future of technologies in hospitals, one thing is for sure, they’re changing the way healthcare operates. 

Whether technologies are enabling a better patient experience through in-room Wi-Fi or providing healthcare personnel with crucial information through patient monitors, health IT is evolving rapidly. Today, consumer-grade guest devices, medical devices, patient entertainment systems and an increasing array of IoT devices and smart building technologies share a single network. Thus, it’s critical that hospital infrastructures securely support all the latest technologies staff, patients, and guests use on the network. This paper will explore:

• Integrating new technologies in the hospital, from the what to the how, when, where, and why
• How to face pressing wireless problems head on
• Building a wireless network for the Smart Hospital
