Network migration in a care environment: the right specialist in the right place
Client: Care Home Alkmaar
The challenge
A care home in Alkmaar faced a complex network migration. All existing wifi access points needed to be inventoried and replaced to transition to a single unified network. The challenge wasn't just technical — a care environment means vulnerable residents. The client wasn't just looking for a network specialist, but someone who could also interact respectfully and patiently with elderly residents.
The solution
Through a personal referral, the client found Maedium. After an in-depth conversation about both the technical and human aspects of the assignment, Maedium found a network specialist who met both requirements. Someone with the right technical knowledge and the social skills to work comfortably in a care environment. The project is currently underway — the inventory has been completed and the replacement of the wifi access points is in full progress.
The results
The inventory of all wifi access points has been successfully completed. The replacement is on schedule. The client reports satisfaction with both the technical approach and the specialist's interaction with the residents. Proof that a good match goes beyond technical skills alone.
