Parkland Health & Hospital System in Dallas relies on healthcare virtualization in its new 2.5 billion square-foot hospital campus, according to an article on the Tech Target website.
With hallways the length of nearly three football fields, having centralized work stations that nurses and doctors run to and from wouldn't work anymore.
Healthcare virtualization technologies allowed the facility to create a virtualized desktop environment.
The technology allowed for a roaming desktop profile for each doctor and nurse in Parkland, as well as a centralized management environment. It also implemented workstations where a user can simply tap their badge on a sensor on the workstation and their desktop — including whatever apps are open and where they left off in those apps — would appear, the article said.
