Case Study: Kentucky field hospital achieves rapid communications connectivity with Verizon Business

Verizon brings communications to 600-bed Kentucky field hospital

Verizon Business helped Kentucky respond to the COVID-19 emergency by supporting a new 600-bed field hospital at the Kentucky Exposition Center in Louisville. The state needed rugged, secure, and reliable communications for internal staff, outside emergency managers, and patients who needed to stay in touch with loved ones.

Verizon Business and Connected Solutions Group quickly delivered a mobile command center with two One Talk-compatible phones, a 4G LTE router, smartphones, flip phones, tablets, and data devices. The complete solution was installed in just 48 hours, giving Kentucky National Guard and Air National Guard medical teams the voice and data tools they needed while enabling patients to communicate with family.
