How Norfolk Community Health and Care revolutionised public health by transforming its digital infrastructure
The Norfolk Community Health and Care NHS Trust (NCH&C) serves a population of more than 900,000 at more than 70 locations.
Its existing network infrastructure was inflexible, reliant on data centres and could not meet the needs of a large community health trust.
With our help, NCH&C took the bold decision to embark on a digital transformation journey and move to a cloud-based, software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN)-supported system.
The new connectivity solution delivered significant cost savings, with a tenfold improvement in the speed and resilience of NCH&C’s core network, dramatically reducing network outages.
‘It’s rare when large-scale infrastructure projects deliver exactly what they promise – but with sufficient planning and groundwork, fortunately this was one of those occasions. We transitioned seamlessly with very little disruption to our end users.’

Arrange a Digital Explore Workshop
This is a collaborative face-to-face session with our digital experts, who will spend time getting to know your trust so they can create tailored solutions to help you achieve your goals.
‘The digital explore workshop facilitated by Virgin Media O2 Business exceeded my expectations. We’re building a new hospital here in Leeds, so it’s mission-critical that we understand what digital infrastructure is needed to ensure the facilities are future-proofed for generations to come. By bringing together our project leadership team and knowledge experts from industry, it enabled the group to explore the art of the possible for digital healthcare.’
