Eye hospital

For an eye hospital where a patient has their vision tested, gets drops, waits for them to work, sees the doctor and then visits the optical shop, and nobody can tell where they are in that chain.

Visits with several steps

  • Check, drops, doctor

    When the optometrist completes the eye test, the patient goes on to the drops and then the doctor's line, so the drops work while they wait.

    2. Go to Dilation room
    3. Go to New patient on Eye doctor
  • Doctor, then optical or counselling

    After the examination the doctor chooses where the patient goes next: the optical shop for glasses, surgery counselling, or nowhere.

The day

Hours, the TV and the poster

  • Opening hours

    Monday to Saturday, 8 am to 5 pm; Sunday, 8 am to 12 noon.

    Close operation theatre days for counselling and add the hospital's festival holidays a month ahead. People who booked those days are listed so you can cancel or keep each one.

  • TV display × 2

    The token being called and the room to go to, for every line.

    In the main hall and in front of the vision check rooms.

  • QR poster

    At the entrance and the registration counter, so a patient can take a place before they reach the desk.

Tips

  • Send the new patient through the path once.

    A process takes a new patient from the eye test to the drops and on to the doctor. Each place in the next line is made only when the step before it is complete.

    How it works →
  • Let the doctor choose what comes next.

    After the examination, "Choose one" sends the patient to the optical shop, counselling or home with one tap at the desk.

    How it works →
  • Put the elderly ahead with priority.

    Give receptionists the Front desk ability and they can tick priority as they add a frail or very elderly patient. Keep Emergency for a patient who must be seen now.

    How it works →
  • Set a TV in each hall.

    Two screens show the token and the room, so people in the main hall and outside the vision check rooms both see their turn.

    How it works →
  • Watch the doctor's line on the Live Board.

    The manager sees which line is backing up and who is serving each one, before the waiting room says so.
