** Would access in the Atrium be helpful? If so I would ask eHealth about this. It might be a matter of the laptop defaulting to the wrong wireless in that area, I would not be surprised if wireless were actually available there. If you ask and get an answer please put it here.

**** It may not be clinical, but it is an open space where employees from other sites can hover with their laptops. I am almost sure I have used mine there, that's why I am surprised to hear no access. Ttenbergen 17:21, 2018 March 21 (CDT)
 
*We do not have wireless in the data offices either because they are not located within the hospital.  Our offices are in the Education Building which is not a clinical area.  --[[User:LKolesar|LKolesar]] 09:29, 2016 November 30 (CST)
** That makes sense, since that building is neither clinical nor high-traffic, and almost anyone who would be there would be tethered. And, all brick, so you'd likely need an access point every 3 feet.

StB

  • wireless available on all wards where we collect
