  • User privacy is maintained during the session with the power for the top user to follow the action being performed on the device.
  • Samsung Remote Support tool supports both Samsung and non-Samsung Android devices ensuring support across the Android OEM market

Effective bedside support

In the Healthcare Industry; Intensive Care Units (ICUs) or care home patients in isolation have been provided tablets to maintain a way of communication through messaging and video conferencing software with their loved ones during this difficult time.

The main concerns facing IT Managers have been around how to ensure effective support is maintained, especially for patients who might not be tablet literate. Also, there is a need for IT Managers to consider how to prevent patients from getting frustrated due to the new technology introduction.

Deployment of Samsung Remote Support has allowed the IT team to remotely support patient devices in a safe and secure way for educational or troubleshooting purposes. Some benefits, not just limited to the ones below are:

  • Minimal patient effort: a foreign session is initiated by the IT administrator; the sole requirement is to pick the ‘Accept’ button which will be presented on the patient’s tablet.
  • Remote learning where an IT administrator can perform a walkthrough of the latest tablet being provided to patients without the necessity to be within an equivalent room, to stop any potential COVID-19 spread.
  • Ability to capture screen or record a session which is reviewed to investigate any Technical issue at a later stage by the IT administrator.
  • The ability for taking device logs and copy of files between the device and the IT administrator’s computer.
