Network System in Nursing Field

        Network system in Medical field helps out the most, especially nurses who works in every departments which they are usually facing the most difficult job in a Medical setting and because of Network system Nurses can work and interact within the group which they can easily pass and share information immediately that can reduce stress and anxiety to other Health workers. Their will be a good collaboration between the other healthcare team with such a technology like this, one can add documentation datums to finish work effortlessly.
         There are different types of Network topology which can help Medical settings reduce workload, this includes the following;
a.) Bus Topology- This is a network setup wherein each of the computers and Network devices are connected to a single cable, also the advantage of this is that  its structure is inexpensive. However, if the network cable breaks, the entire network goes down.
 b.) Star topology- This can really help Nurses since it is easy to setup and it is very common network setup where each of the devices and computer on a network connect t a central hub but the big disadvantage to this is that when the central hub fails, all other devices and computers connected to that hub would be disconnected.
c.) Tree Topology-  This is also similar to Bus topology, it connects multiple star networks to other star networks. The disadvantage to this is that if the cable between each of the star topology networks failed, those networks would be unable to communicate w/ each other but computer on the same topology can still be able to communicate.
d.) Mesh Topology- This type of Topology is not commonly use because it is expensive and difficult to use.
e.) Ring Topology- Today, ring topology is seldom used.
