NHS Foundation Trust provides a wide range of integrated community health, mental health, learning disability and social care services to people of all ages.
The Trust employs 3,838 staff and has a turnover of £158 million. It provides services from 13 community hospitals across the county and offers mental health inpatient services on nine mental health wards.
“We are proud of our services and the hard work and commitment of our staff, but we know that we can always improve and develop our services.”
The Trust wished to provide a safe and secure WiFi internet solution for their service users to access whilst in their many locations. This was to be provided on their existing Ruckus network infrastructure, avoiding costly network uplift. The sites were to present a bespoke NHS landing page, in keeping with their corporate identity, extending the Trust touchpoints with the service users.
Looking to the future
It was also crucial to the Trust to look towards the future and what functionality could enhance the service user’s experience.
With non-app dependent welcome messaging and proximity detection functionality, Yo Wireless was the natural choice to provide a solution for the present and the future.
Implementation.
By working closely with Ruckus, the wireless access points were managed using the ‘Zone Director’ controller. As Yo Wireless is integrated with both the hardware & software controllers, it was a simple process to direct the Guest Access users to the NHS branded landing pages. Here they logged in to the WiFi internet access using either their email address or social media credentials. Once initially authenticated, they were then recognised on subsequent visits.
