Remote access for social service facilities

Making working hours and work locations more flexible while reducing costs is no longer limited to the private sector, it is a growing issue for social services institutions too.

It is therefore essential to give these organizations external access to their data and applications.

With the right technology, even the highest data protection and data security requirements can be met for remote data access.

Workflow for social services

Application scenarios of social service facilities:

Outpatient care

Caregivers have to report their care activities. Instead of returning to the care facility, it is be clearly easier for them to complete their reports at home in the evening. Not only does it contribute to increase motivation and commitment of employees, it also distinctly reduces travel expenses.

Operations managers often have to update duty rosters and route planning on weekends because of emergencies and unforeseen events. Therefore, both operations managers and caregivers need fast and flexible access to their facility's administrative systems.

From a budget perspective, it makes sense to allow the use of private PCs for such activities while considering data protection and data security requirements without placing an additional burden on IT.

Home office

In order to promote families and retain experienced employees, offering mothers-to-be and parents with small children a better work-life balance is a worthwhile investment.

Private PCs can be used as workstations without security concerns while ensuring 100% separation of private and professional use.

Volunteers

Volunteers are increasingly taking on administrative tasks and need to document their work centrally. They therefore need access to the relevant applications.

Volunteers may work for free, but they are subject to the same data protection requirements as salaried employees.

Kindergartens and schools

Appropriate security arrangements must be made for educators' and teachers' access to administrative systems, especially because development reports or report cards involve very personal data.

If a PC is also used to surf the internet, the access to illegal or age-inappropriate contents must be prohibited.
