Daybreak Venture Delivers Optimum Patient Care with Aerohive's Next-Generation Wireless Infrastructure

Aerohive Networks® (NYSE: HIVE), a leader in controller-less Wi-Fi and cloud-managed mobile networking for the enterprise market, today announced that Daybreak Venture, a leader in the provision of comprehensive skilled rehabilitation and nursing care, has deployed Aerohive's (News - Alert) secure wireless networking solution to support EHR access, provide wireless Internet to both residents and guests and ultimately to administer superior patient care.

News Facts

• Daybreak Venture is a leading provider of long-term and assisted living rehabilitative care in Texas with more than 75 geographically distributed facilities, as well as four additional facilities located in Missouri. With more than 5,400 employees, the organization offers services for skilled nursing, hospice, respite care and long-term care.
• Committed to providing the highest quality of care for its residents, Daybreak Venture began leveraging Wi-Fi-enabled technology to deliver greater services and innovative programs for residents across 20 locations. However, the organization only had Cisco's (News - Alert) controller-based networking technology and lacked the budget to equip the rest of its facilities with Cisco WLAN controllers. The long-term care provider recognized it needed to upgrade to a more cost-effective, centrally managed controller-less networking solution that would enable the organization to implement a comprehensive Wi-Fi infrastructure.
• Daybreak Venture evaluated several networking solution providers, but ultimately selected Aerohive for its cost-effective, controller-less solution, strong feature set, central management capabilityand HIPAA-compliant security standards.
• Daybreak Venture has started deploying Aerohive's AP121 access points throughout each facility, with plans to conclude the full rollout in the next year. In addition, the organization is also leveraging Aerohive's HiveManager® Networking Management System for centralized configuration, monitoring and management.
• With Aerohive's reliable connectivity, Daybreak Venture has installed Point-of-Care workstations, allowing staff to quickly and easily enter patient data and information such as medication activities, vitals and notes, bringing documentation closer to patients and enabling staff to deliver care more efficiently. Additionally, physicians can now access EHR both on site and remotely to improve clinical workflow, decrease oversight and provide constant patient monitoring.
• Since implementing Aerohive, Daybreak Venture has been able to securely deploy a network that supports HIPAA compliance standards, and patient privacy and data protection regulations, as well as provide secure guest access to its residents and visitors.

"From enabling us to install Point-of-Care workstations to putting plans in place for medical personnel to use tablets in their daily care routines, Daybreak Venture is more than pleased with the wireless solution from Aerohive," said John Valker, CIO, Daybreak Venture. "We highly recommend Aerohive to any medical provider that wants to offer not only enhanced medical care and greater oversight, but to provide Wi-Fi for residents and guests. Daybreak Venture chose Aerohive for its controller-less architecture that has proven to meet our requirements across the board."
