We have 2 branches with a PC in each, dialing in to the main EMIS
fileserver when the surgeries are running. As there is only one port
available, a label printer for the dispensary cannot be run at the same
time, which is something of a disadvantage, so labels have to be written by
hand. Apart from that, we have full access to the clinical system in the
normal way. Scripts can be printed and data entered.

> I am facilitating a discussion on IT and branch surgeries next week at a
> Meditel site. I don't have a branch surgery myself so I would be very
> interested to hear of surgeries that do, and for their views on how IT
> helps them clinically and administratively. What criteria are important
> in deciding what connections to use, what network protocols can you use.
> The two surgeries are not line of sight so semaphore and microwave are
> not viable options!

> Thanks for your ideas.
