Dental Clinics Use Digital Signage.

Inevitably, the COVID-19 pandemic has forced all businesses across Canada to redesign their operations. Dental clinics have also been affected to some extent by the closure, many of which are only allowed to provide emergency dental services on a limited basis. In the second phase of the reopening process, the Ontario government deemed dental clinics essential and allowed them to reopen as long as they took the necessary hygiene measures to keep patients and staff safe.

Reopening regulations and processes include: purchasing bulk PPE; retrofitting dental offices with glass partitions to prevent droplet transmission; installing air purification filters throughout the office; providing additional hand sanitizing stations; installing digital signage or touchscreens monitor. If you've been avoiding dentist visits for the past few months, rest assured that all of these requirements have been met, and the use of digital signage has made the transition to the new normal easier.

1. An introduction to digital signage

With the continuous development of modern technology, the application of digital display technology will be everywhere. With the integration of network and multimedia technology, digital signage releases and processes information in the form of media, and interacts with customer feedback information in a timely manner. It has been widely used in finance, telecommunications, hospitals, shopping malls, supermarkets, hotels, public places and other fields. The system adopts advanced design concept and open interface, which can integrate various applications. The digital signage system can count and record the playing time, playing times and playing range of multimedia content, and can also realize more powerful interactive functions while playing, which brings opportunities for creating new media.

2. Use digital signage to display important information

When dental clinics were first allowed to reopen, patients were asked to wait outside the premises until staff called them in. This is to limit the number of people in offices and slow the spread of the virus. Waiting rooms are now slowly reopening, but still with strict restrictions and lower patient capacity, with digital signage placed outside offices and inside waiting rooms to entertain patients as they wait to be called. Digital signage can also be used to provide important COVID-19, treatment, or clinic-related updates, including educating them about new health conditions and safety protocols for dental clinics. Give your patients peace of mind so they can get the essential or non-essential dental treatment they need with confidence.
