LCD Screens in Waiting Rooms…

I am currently investigating the possibility of installing LCD screens in the waiting rooms at both Andrew Place and Bundoora Health.

I am having discussions with “Community Network” about the viability of installing their screens and their software to control the screen content. Basically each screen display area is split into three segments. Segment 1 is the largest main arae in the middle of the screen. This segment will display (No sound) graphic adverts designed and created for us by Community Network. We get use of this content arae 30% of the time and the remaining 70% of the time the screen carries adverts for local businesses. (This is how community network fund the free screens and their operation)

The other two segments of the screen are a sdection down the right hand side, and a scrolling “ticker bar” at the bottom. We get 100% use of these areas to display our own messages etc.

The system is controlled via an easy internet access system, so we can update the content any time we like, from any PC which has access to the internet…from anywhere we happen to be!

Can you all give some thought to the type of content you think we should display on the screen and let me know. Tthe idea is that we use the screen to replace the various notices which are stuck up araound the reception areas, whilst at the same time giving more information on our services etc to our patients.
