By Chrissie Cluney April 28, 2016

When a person is injured and they need the best medical assistance and attention they turn to the best hospital around. But where does the hospital go for the best assistance?

In the case of New York’s Hospital for Special Surgery, they have sought out the assistance of Hudson Fiber Network and have partnered together to use Hudson’s custom data network designed to connect multiple facilities.

“Today’s leading healthcare facilities have a growing need for big bandwidth networks to move detailed information like test results, x-rays, and patient information within their member facilities,” said Brett Diamond, CEO, Hudson Fiber Network. 

Hudson Fiber Network allows the hospital to connect and share data between hospitals, doctors’ offices, labs, clinics and other service points quickly and efficiently through its custom network design that provides low-latency, high-bandwidth. 

“HFN is recognized as having one of the most advanced network structures in the NY/NJ/CT metro area,” said Jason Vanrell, director of technical operations, department of information technology, Hospital for Special Surgery. “Their ability to assist us in building out our network and interconnecting our key locations made them an invaluable partner.”

Hudson Fiber Network is a data transport and infrastructure provider, which allows multiple facilities to connect facility to facility to offer patients the best quality of care and expertise. The company and its network offer flexible networking solutions for financial, content, carrier and enterprise clients.

The Hospital for Special Surgery is a member of the New York-Presbyterian Healthcare System. It is an affiliate of Weill Cornell Medical College. All of the Hospital for Special Surgery’s medical staff are faculty of Weill Cornell. The hospital specializes in orthopedics, rheumatology and rehabilitation and has been ranked highly in the U.S. News & World Report in the 2015-16 issue. It is the first hospital in New York State to receive Magnet Recognition for Excellence in Nursing Service from the American Nurses Credentialing Center three consecutive times.
