NEC Australia has developed an open ICT and Cloud computing services platform for the Aged Care sector, creating an array of IT productivity benefits, including many hosted Aged Care high value add applications such as iCare, Autumncare and ion.mycare.

Aged Care operators that want to invest in improved technology benefits to allow them to maximise care and minimise cost, without an up-front capital expenditure investment model, can now do so.

Facilities that have already invested in technology to simplify and streamline their processes may lower costs further through this sector-wide Cloud computing initiative that will reposition the Aged Care industry in its ability to address sector-wide challenges such as increasing client needs, falling staff numbers, remote care, community care, training challenges and skills shortages.

Working with NEC, Aged Care facilities will be able to complement their strategies for the future, ensuring the continuing delivery of productivity and efficiency gains through reduction in Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).

 

Deliver smoother workflow, gains in productivity and efficiency at a lower cost with NEC’s Cloud computing technology.

Aged Care facilities who choose to plug into an NEC Cloud will receive a practical, relevant individual solution from the initial consultation and system design, to integration and ongoing support as needed.

Hosted Applications

Enhance productivity and reduce costs through a range of hosted business software solutions such as Aged Care Clinical, Care, Administration and Claims, Compliance and Governance management along with more widely applicable applications such as intranets, call centre, trouble ticketing, email hosting and collaboration. Additional hosted solutions can provide security through a hosted firewall and hosted Anti-Virus Anti-Spam solutions.

Connectivity

NEC has a national and extensive broadband network that combines the best available access products from NEC and other providers, and presents the resulting network as a single, managed high performance and reliable connectivity solution ideally suited for the Aged Care industry metro, regional or remote.

Aged Care facilities can leverage NEC’s business grade broadband, fibre and wireless services to connect facilities to each other, the internet or any other purpose.

Private Networks VPN

Where Aged Care facilities are spread over multiple sites, remote access for staff to systems or an intranet is required and data security is of paramount importance, NEC offers a Private Network solution that delivers on these needs.

Dedicated Virtual Servers

Ideal for Aged Care operators requiring servers to operate their business applications and securely store business data without the cost and complexity of maintaining their own server hardware. The servers are maintained and supported in and NEC owned and operated secure data centre with redundancy, 7 day back-up and Disaster Recovery offered as standard.

Thin Clients or Managed Desktop

The thin client approach allows Aged Care facilities to dramatically lower their total cost of ownership. This spreads the resource of one, powerful server over several users, who can access their hosted desktop via any capable device such as a laptop, traditional PC or a thin client, a simple terminal device that dramatically lowers onsite support costs.

Voice: Hosted or On-site

NEC’s Hosted IP telephony solution is ideally suited to both single and multi-site Aged Care facilities with a need for 4 to 200+ handset deployments, a great substitute for expensive in-house PABX systems or traditional fixed line services like ISDN. As telephony and connectivity are absolutely critical to the safe operation of an Aged Care facility, NEC can install a combination of fail-safe communications systems for your peace of mind.

System Integration

NEC has extensive experience in the Systems Integration (SI) of complex and mission critical systems. In addition, NEC has extensive experience in managing subcontractors and working with partners across Australia.

Managed and Professional Services

NEC delivers a wide range of remotely managed monitoring services. NEC’s Network Operations Centre (NOC), based in Mulgrave, Victoria provides NEC customers nation-wide with 24x7x365 alarm monitoring and management of voice, data and converged IP Telephony networks.
