An Ounce of Prevention Improves Patient Care and the Bottom Line
Dreyer Medical Clinic spent millions of dollars moving paper charts many times, every day, back-and-forth, from the medical records department to exam rooms and doctors' offices. A new software system offered a better way to manage and update information, but required secure and reliable computing access in exam rooms as well as from the nurse's station and doctor's offices.

Along with a network-centric computing solution, Dreyer adopted Wyse® Winterm™ terminals to keep technology costs down, reduce administrative costs of paper records, and improve patient care. Now doctors update records in real time and caregivers have 24/7 access to patient records to provide the best treatment.

Solution Architecture

• Wyse® Winterm™ thin clients
• Applications:
  - EpicCare
  - EpicWeb
  - Terminal emulation
  - Microsoft Office
• Suite Servers:
  - 7 servers running Citrix MetaFrame and XPE on Windows 2000
• Network:
  - 12 remote locations

"We love the fact that they are out-of-the-box, ready-to-go. We are deciding whether to replace dumb terminals with new Wyse devices or redeploy older PCs. My gut tells me to buy new hardware from Wyse. We just plug them in and they are done. They automatically pull the firmware upgrade down. The speed is great."
