Locating a medical service for the first time, accessing transport and car parking, finding amenities and waiting in unfamiliar environments can contribute to patient stress and anxiety at a time that may already be quite stressful. Take into account the varied mobility and cognitive needs of many patients and it’s clear that creating a welcoming physical environment and ensuring signs comply with statutory requirements is an important component of patient care.

You can contribute to patient comfort and satisfaction by providing:

• Exterior signage to assist patients to easily identify your location and entry points
• Reception signage that welcomes and directs patients to engage with the correct staff
• Waiting room signage that gives patients permission to use amenities, ask questions and report relevant clinical information
• Wayfinding signage that assists patients navigate to needed services and amenities
• Interior signage that distinguishes between clinical and non-clinical spaces and patient and staff spaces
• Door and directory signage that accurately reflects who is on duty

Whether you need signs for a boutique practice or a large hospital, our proven project management processes ensure your signs are installed on-time and to specification, every time.

Clear and easy-to-understand signage is also good for staff. According the Center for Health Design, when patients have the benefit of an information system, including elements such as a welcome sign and orientation aids, patients are more self-reliant and make fewer demands on staff.
