ShoreTel Unified Communications to Enhance Patient Care
ShoreTel, the leading provider of brilliantly simple IP phone systems with fully integrated Unified Communications (UC), announced that The Evangelical Lutheran Good Samaritan Society is in the process of deploying a ShoreTel UC system across 200 offices in the United States. The Society is the nation’s largest not-for-profit long-term care provider, with an 88-year history of creating communities where people can find meaningful lives and fulfilling work. The ShoreTel UC system will support more than 17,000 end users in an installation that includes about 5,000 mobile devices and reaches across 200 offices in the United States. With its’ new ShoreTel UC system, the Society can:
- Preserve its investments in wireless
- Focus on WAN resiliency and bandwidth utilization
- Provide for virtual administration
- Enable mobile workers to answer calls on their desk or mobile phones
- Reduce costs, increase productivity and enhance service
The deployment is being rolled out in several stages, and the phased implementation is an excellent example of the ShoreTel 360 Migration Program at work, which enables the Society to phase out its legacy equipment, integrate new elements and scale its system without disrupting its communications services.
