Workstation Deployment – Inova Health System

CloudSwitch successfully executed a large-scale Workstation Deployment project for Inova Health System in Virginia. The project involved the setup and configuration of new medical-grade workstations across various departments, ensuring seamless integration with the hospital's IT infrastructure. Our team handled hardware installation, software configuration, network connectivity, and testing, all while adhering to HIPAA compliance and healthcare IT standards. The deployment improved staff productivity, system reliability, and overall patient care operations.
