Our wireless networks both at home, at the practice, and at the hospital are 
entirely separate from the wired networks (eg different subnets, not 
bridged).

The only way to log onto a clinical machine (even from within the network) is 
now via ssh or ssh X forwarding, single port, heavily guarded, all other 
ports blocked.

Tools like fail2ban ensure that nobody (= no originating IP number) gets more 
than 3 tries before they are out when attempting to break in by brute force

Now, THAT is simple and fool proof.
