Preparing Your Community’s Network for the Connected Resident On-Demand Webinar

Learn What Questions to Ask Now

Originally recorded July 20th at 10 A.M – Watch On-Demand Now

Morefield has seen an increasing demand on the evolving network needs of senior care communities. As we work within communities, we have seen a drastic increase in the reliance on internet bandwidth trending as smart devices and IoT skyrocket into the lives of families. Video-enabled applications that offer the ability to see each other with the touch of a button, to communicate with medical professionals, alert maintenance or request transportation, are just a few of the conveniences that have become the social norm of today’s senior living community. While many older adults still hesitate to fully embrace some technologies, simple-to-use devices have made navigating the digital world easier, and the circumstances of the past few years have forced many to adapt.

What we know:

  • Smart technology use continues to trend upward and has generated a greater demand for bandwidth and expanded wireless capabilities throughout senior communities.
  • Administrators are now responsible for providing support to a variety of smart devices that are connected, accessible, and protected on the network.
  • The rising demand brings into perspective the need for future planning of the networking and Wi-Fi.

 

Learn what questions you should be asking now so that you can meet the needs of your residents in the upcoming years.

Watch to answer the following questions:

  • Are a majority of your employees working from a home office? Will you offer remote working post-Pandemic?
  • Is your organization re-thinking your real estate footprint?
  • Allocation of assigned office space vs. open huddle space for employee collaboration
  • Will 2021 drive new approaches for commercial real estate, will you need to act quickly to accommodate these plans?
  • An engineered circuit can take 10 to 12 weeks to complete provisioning.
  • Can your organization’s plans accommodate 10 to 12 week construction windows? Need to move faster?
