Networked systems are integral to the efficient operation of healthcare facilities, including radiology departments. However, network downtimes can occur due to various reasons, including system upgrades, cyber-attacks, or technical failures. During such downtimes, radiology departments must have robust contingency plans to ensure continued operation and patient care.
This topic explores the systems and processes essential for recovering from a network downtime in a radiology department, focusing on report distribution, recovery strategies, and communication channels.
Objectives
- Describe key systems and processes involved in report distribution during a network downtime in a radiology department.
- Identify effective distribution strategies that ensure continuity of operations and minimize disruption during a network downtime.
- Discuss steps to establish reliable communication channels to ensure proper coordination during network recovery efforts.
