The switch over from analogue to digital inevitable. The deadline for transitioning from analogue to digital telecommunications networks is December 2025. The transition of telecommunications infrastructure and the adoption of digital technologies in social care is something that can’t escape the sector and this webinar will help prepare organisations to be ready before the changeover becomes none returnable.
Care homes will need to ensure they have a suitable broadband and telephony service in place and activated prior to the switchover to avoid a complete loss of phone service.
It is imperative that care homes are prepared well in advance due to infrastructure degradation, reduced engineers and geographical areas migrating earlier than others.
If you have other systems connected to your phone line, such as intruder and lift alarms, telecare systems, Emergency Red Phones. Epos machines, CCTV, or even some half-hourly electricity meters, then they’ll stop working too.
This session will cover:
- The switchover explained
- Recent update announcements
- Implications for your care home
- What is replacing this and the benefits
- Ensuring you are prepared
- Questions from the care sector
- and much more
