VKA e. V. – The WINDBOX II Quad goes far and wide

20.04.2017

“The human being in the middle”. Under this guiding principle, around 2,000 employees in the Archdiocese of Paderborn look after the well-being of senior citizens in need of care every day. This refers to the Verein katholischer Altenhilfeeinrichtungen (VKA e. V.), which is based in Hamm, North Rhine-Westphalia. While the VKA e. V. was officially founded in the early 1990s, its actual origins go way back to the 19th century. The association is represented in Paderborn with 18 residential and nursing homes, four day care facilities and the outpatient care service “VKA ambulant”.

Task

With a geriatric care facility the size of the VKA, it is easy to lose track of things. This is because each location is planned and organized individually and each has its own accounting system. Flexibility and a clear and concise system are therefore important for the nursing home in Paderborn.
Software enables employees to access the central server at the head office remotely. From any location. In this way, VKA kills two birds with one stone: in addition to a uniform structure for all employees, the association is also able to bring together and archive all data and information directly.
An uncomplicated and reliable mini PC serves as an office client for the team.

Product solution

The mini PC we are talking about here is the spo-book WINDBOX II Quad.
The passively cooled embedded PC fits comfortably behind any screen and is also ideally suited for office use in the Catholic care facility for the elderly. Because the WINDBOX does not use an active fan, it creates a whisper-quiet working environment. The IPC's four processor cores and up to eight gigabytes of RAM ensure a smooth user interface.

Conclusion

For those who place great value on durability, the passively cooled solutions from spo-comm are the right choice. This is also the case for the Association of Catholic Care Facilities for the Elderly, which relies on the latest generation of reliability with the spo-book WINDBOX II Quad.
