Benefits of Digital Signage in Healthcare for Improved Patient Experience


May 8, 2022


Digital signage is the next step to modernizing your business or facility. Hospitals and healthcare facilities especially can benefit from digital signage, making for a better experience and more efficient processes for staff, visitors, and patients. 

When you update to digital signage, you create an environment that reflects the high standard of care at your hospital, clinic, or medical office that provides advantages for everyone.  

From the Fortec US team, here are a few important benefits of digital signage to investing in digital signage for your hospital or healthcare facility:

Clear Directions with Digital Wayfinding Signage

Just about any hospital or healthcare facility will be large, busy, and possibly even chaotic, making it difficult to find where you need to go easily. Digital signage can provide visitors with clear, easily located directions and information about where they are and how to find what they are looking for. This is especially helpful in cases of emergency.  

Personalized Patient Care and Improved Patient Experience

Providing the best and highest-quality level of patient care should be the priority for every healthcare facility and hospital. Bedside digital signage helps take personalized patient care to the next level, elevating traditional paper charts and bulletin boards. Patient information can easily be updated and edited, making it easier for staff to understand and communicate with the person they are helping.  

Real-Time Communication with Engaging Content

There is always important information that needs to be communicated between staff, visitors, and patients. Digital signage helps your facility display wait times, public safety announcements, events, health tips, and other content. As well, it can be updated at any point quickly and easily.

Share Important Information Across Hospital Staff

Digital signage for healthcare employees can be a powerful tool, allowing staff members to quickly and easily share critical information with one another; there is less of a need for paper charts, bulky folders, and delivering documents by hand. As well, digital signage can help manage and organize the facilities’ operations, including employee schedules, break times, and more.  

Increased Diagnosis Time with Digital Displays

With multiple digital screens at your disposal, doctors, nurses, and other medical professionals can conveniently look at various data scans, x-rays, and more to easily compare and understand the information. This helps speed up the time it takes to arrive at a diagnosis and therefore improves the overall patient experience.
