Delhi AIIMS forms panel to make its campus fully WiFi enabled
“In line with the global best practices adopted by various medical universities for patient care, teaching, research, good governance and for optimal deployment of Integrated Medical University Information System (IMUIS), it is desirable that the entire AllMS New Delhi campus is Wi-Fi enabled,” the memo said.;
New Delhi: The AIIMS administration has constituted a committee which will be tasked with making its Delhi campus fully Wi-Fi enabled, an office memorandum issued on Friday said.
AIIMS Delhi has a mix of patient care, academics, and research activities, which requires 24×7 campuswide secure Wi-Fi connectivity, it said.

“It has been noted that currently, only new buildings are Wi-Fi enabled and majority of the campus has very poor WiFi connectivity which is causing great discomfort to patients, staff and visitors alike,” Director Dr M Srinivas was quoted as saying in the memorandum.
The lack of a common Wi-Fi network has led to many departments setting up Wi-Fi networks of their own to facilitate their day-to-day working making it difficult to monitor the said networks centrally for any cyber threats, it said.
