Why No Hospital Wi Fi?

YESYour mobile phone, tablet or Laptop will not have to adhere to strict regulations regarding EMR and RFI. Medical kit does.
I work for a manufacturer of medical kit and we cannot even change the supplier of the mains lead without providing a papertrail to prove they conform to set guidelines.
All the power leads and PSUs used internally have to have noise suppression fitted. Even the data cables are wired with twists in some pairs to cut-out cross-feed.
Thank you for the insight there.
Also...I just love your signature:rotfl: How very true!:DYou've heard the budget speech now you've been told. Make lots of cash then die before you're old 'Cause we're gonna Tax Gran that's what it is We're gonna Tax Gran freeze her allowances. You better hope next winter isn't cold.

Perhaps you are BP (Black Person) or a GP (Gay Person) or a MA (Middle Aged Person) I could go on and on and on.
If you are any of them.... would you like the label?
Not sure if that was an attempt at humour? Or sarcasm?
But, just in case, "OP" = Original Poster. (i.e. you.)0 -

O.K. please accept my apology. :huh:
I should have known that OP meant that instead of something else.:o

NOyou are forgiven -
had you been a new poster I would not have assumed you were familiar with the abbreviation!
Had to rack the brain to wonder what you THOUGHT it meant - but, OP, please bear in mind that on here we are all genderless; faceless and ageless (and anything-else less)! as it happens I COULD be BP GP and MA - so one label might not suffice!
I know that power has to be transmitted - but your signature suggests you're not happy with any of it...
Anyway, why not write to your local paper and get local people behind you saying you DO want wi-fi in the hospital and get a campaign going rather than complaining on a faceless forum?Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily Dickinson

Yes, being long time here I should have known better.
"Anyway, why not write to your local paper and get local people behind you saying you DO want wi-fi in the hospital and get a campaign going rather than complaining on a faceless forum"?
Yes I have been know to write to newspapers and got the odd thing going and I do intend moving along the lines that you suggest thank you.
Regarding 'faceless forum"......people, me included post here to see how others view whatever opinion and obtain good constructive ideas like yours for instance.
I reckon anyone posting here just has to be a tiny little bit crackers.:D
Most of the time this is just some rather enjoyable Banter aside from the few 'nasties' out there who just want to kick whoever in the nuts!:eek:
It could be worse.....I could be spending most of my day on Twitter;)
P.S. Have you seen my Post in respect of 'The Great Climate Change Con, Wind farms and the rest' ?
My nuts get squeezed quite a lot in this OP!

YESit must be just what your trust provides as my husband has stayed in two merseyside hospitals in the last 3 months and they both had wifi.This was much to hubbbys delight cos he watched sky go,so we had no tv charges either.
Me being a Scouser it doesn't surprise me that the best facilities are on Merseyside!:DYou've heard the budget speech now you've been told.

YESno I haven't.

Well, even though I left Liverpool (Everton Fan) 38 years ago I do still have a very nice Scouse accent if that will warm you to me!;)
At least have a look at the Smash Advert....
