I had gotten help here a few months ago and was nearly ready to implement a small server.
I'm starting a small medical clinic (two physicians, 3 exam rooms, one shared office and receptionist. Our EMR Is cloud based, and we are on office 365. Nothing of importance will be stored locally. My partner and I are now thinking of using a few mobile devices (ie 2 surface pro 3) + the receptionists PC instead of desktops in each room. There may be one more PC as a kiosk that doesn’t need any network resources.
We were thinking a scanner hooked up to receptionists PC and a couple of networked printers that probably doesn’t need a print server.
In Canada there is no explicit law enforcing domain networks (no Hippa). Obviously I'd like a secure system but for 3 PCs do I really need a domain network? It's not so much the upfront costs it's the ongoing IT/support and one more thing that could break/ cripple the setup which we may not need.
Thoughts? Appreciate the help!
