COMCAST PARTNERSHIP
A vital partner for the Mental Health Center of Denver has become Comcast Business , which provides broadband connectivity at 35 locations across the city , critical redundancy for multiple residential and walk-in facilities and supporting a widespread shift to telehealth services .
During the Covid-19 crisis , thanks to Comcast Business , the Center ’ s workforce was able to begin telecommuting on the same day that the service delivery line shifted to telehealth . The throughput is now able to support multiple concurrent video sessions – from five telehealth sessions a week before the pandemic , now about 4,000 are possible .
“ Modern medical facilities like MHCD require fast , flexible and secure network connectivity that ensures the integrity and availability of health data when treatment teams need it ,” said Robert Thompson , vice president of Comcast Business for the company ’ s Mountain West Region . “ Comcast Business was proud to help the MHCD team quickly get the network up and running , so staff could continue to provide the highest quality care to outpatients and residents .”
