Free TT WiFi Launched At Eric Williams Medical Sciences Complex

Patients, visitors and healthcare workers at the Eric Williams Medical Sciences Complex can now stay connected while at the facility, as free TT WiFi has been launched at key public and waiting areas, providing greater access to the internet for those who need it.

Speaking at the launch of TT WiFi at the hospital on Wednesday, Minister of Health Dr Lackram Bodoe said the initiative, done in partnership with the Telecommunications Authority of Trinidad and Tobago (TATT), brings the country’s healthcare sector in line with global technical advancements.

“We are living in a time when technology is changing how people communicate, how they learn, how they work, how they access services, and therefore our healthcare system must keep pace with this reality, but today’s initiative also speaks to something much broader than healthcare: digital access is increasingly a part of participation in modern society. A person who cannot afford consistent mobile data should not automatically be excluded from the opportunities that connectivity provides.”
