Hi everyone,

I’m a Ing. sistem student currently working on my thesis regarding IT infrastructure in the healthcare sector.

Any insights on the following would be a huge help:

• Hardware: How old are the daily-use workstations? (Are we talking modern builds or legacy machines still clinging to Windows 7/XP?).
• HIS/Systems: Does your Hospital Information System run in the browser (SaaS/Web-based) or is it a locally installed "thick client" (Java, .exe, etc.)?
• Paper vs. Digital: Do nurses have terminals/COWs (Computer on Wheels) everywhere, or is paper still the king for daily charting?
• Pain Points: Is there a specific piece of software that "always breaks" or slows everything down?
• Contingency Plans: What happens when the system goes down? Are there clear paper protocols in place, or does the facility go into panic mode?
• Security: Are USB ports strictly blocked, or is it still a "wild west" where anyone can plug anything in?
• Integration: Is there a single Unified Patient Record, or do departments (Lab, Radiology, ER) use separate systems that don't talk to each other?

I'm currently working full time as a team lead in retail , I'm on the third course for the certificate , and I plan to work on my comptia a+ after completing this course, all in the name of a career change to help desk.

This is kind of a shot in the dark but I'm hoping to find someone on a similar path as me , just to be friends with / accountability partner.

I'm making progress on my own but it would be nice to have someone that I know will probably text me at some point and ask me "so how much further along are you?" and I'd do the same to them haha.

I guess you don't have to be working on the same certs as me but if you're working towards a career change to tech like me , I'd like to be friends , send me a dm on here, I wouldn't mind hearing about your life and why you're working on a career in tech.

Honestly speaking, I am in need of AutoCAD M4 version or even SolidWorks M4. I can’t seem to find it nowhere with a proper cr4ck. Please Help.

Thanks
