Managed IT & PHIPA compliance for a dental clinic

A busy dental clinic was running patient records on an aging setup with no IT support and no clear handle on its PHIPA obligations. Enrage became its outsourced IT team.

The challenge

Where they stood

Systems were slow and unmonitored, backups were a question mark, and staff turnover meant old accounts were never removed — a real risk for a clinic holding patient health information under PHIPA. With no IT support, small problems became lost hours at the front desk.

Our approach

What we did

  • Delivered a Health Check covering security, IT health, and PHIPA-aware data handling
  • Put the clinic on a Secure managed plan: monitoring, patching, and help desk
  • Set up tested backups and endpoint protection across all workstations
  • Locked down access control with a proper staff onboarding/offboarding process
  • Hardened Microsoft 365 and email security
  • Gave the clinic one accountable point of contact for anything that breaks
The results

What changed

The clinic now runs on a monitored, backed-up system with PHIPA-aware controls — and the front desk spends its time on patients, not IT problems.
