Use managed mobile devices for Personal Room meetings
In this article
Feedback?Webex Meetings makes virtual telehealth visits easy and safe for patients and staff. Healthcare facilities can set up iPads and iPhones that are configured with mobile device management (MDM) software to be shared and assigned to rooms, where medical team members can meet virtually with their patients.
Create Webex accounts
As the healthcare facility’s IT Administrator, you must first set up Webex accounts for each patient room that may share a mobile device, just as you did for each of your site users.
Make sure the site settings and the account's preferences allow users to enter the Personal Room freely.
Make the Webex site name, account usernames, and the password available to any team members that are managing the devices and meeting with patients.
Configure devices for the Webex Meetings app
The IT administrator or another member of the healthcare staff must configure the mobile device using mobile device management (MDM) software. This allows the staff to quickly sign in to accounts and easily switch accounts on the same device.
