Abstract
A healthcare system is provided for a care-giving facility. The healthcare system has a medical device, a user interface, a first central computer, and a second central computer. The first central computer has a first database and a first functional feature set associated with the data and functions related to the medical device and the user interface. The medical device and user interface communicate directly with first central computer. The second central computer has a second database and a second functional feature set. The first central computer is securely connected to the second computer, and the medical device and the user interface do not communicate directly with the second central computer. The user interface can receive data from the second database relating to the second functional feature set of the second central computer through the first central computer.
