As a leading provider of healthcare in central Florida with numerous facilities spread throughout the region, Orlando Regional Healthcare (ORHS) is constantly searching for ways to better meet the needs of its patients and staff. Recognizing the critical role information plays in healthcare, ORHS made the strategic decision to adopt a new clinical information system that integrated the various standalone systems the healthcare provider was using. ORHS deployed a completely integrated voice, video, data and storage network based on the Optical Metro 3000 portfolio, providing highly reliable, multiservice networking to each of its seven hospitals and cancer center.
