Traditionally, hospitals usually install a television in the waiting room with the sole purpose of entertaining and comforting patients. Nowadays, digital signage, more than a TV, can serve as an effective communication tool and brings much more benefits to both patients and healthcare providers in hospitals, clinics, and nursing homes.
Entertainment
Digital signage can provide TV programs or even interactive games to comfort anxious patients and reduce patient’s perceived wait time.
Information Delivery
Digital signage system can show hospital’s announcements, doctor’s visitation times and department, etc. It can also keep families of surgery patients informed continuously with up to date information on the progress of surgery. In this way, it will be an aid to the comfort of families in the waiting room.
Education Platform
Digital signage can help hospitals provide educational programs, such as new treatments, surgery, preventive care, etc.
Wayfinding Information
Digital signage can be arranged in reception rooms leading patients and visitors to their destination quickly.
Patient Flow Management
Digital signage can integrate with hospital queuing system so that healthcare providers can serve patients quickly and efficiently, as well as entertain patients at the same time through a multi-zone template.
