Case Study: Rochelle Community Hospital achieves faster IT response and improved mobility with Samsung Galaxy Tab S

Rochelle Community Hospital - Customer Case study

Rochelle Community Hospital, a roughly 400-employee healthcare provider in Rochelle, Illinois, needed greater mobility for IT and clinical staff but its EMR ran only on PCs, leaving doctors and nurses reliant on notebooks and rolling carts. Chris Powell, an Information Systems Technician on the hospital’s seven-person IT team, evaluated tablet options and adopted Samsung’s Galaxy Tab® S to extend desktop access and support enterprise apps.

Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S was deployed as a remote-work extension for Powell and IT staff — used with Microsoft Remote Desktop for VPN access, HP iLO and VMware for server management, and Hancom Office Viewer for document editing. Built-in Samsung capabilities like Multi User Mode, Knox Workspace and Samsung’s MDM plus long battery life let the seven-person IT team securely support more than 400 employees, respond to after-hours issues from anywhere, and reduce reliance on full PCs, noticeably improving productivity and operational flexibility.
