MEQUON, Wis. - July 9, 2013 - PRLog -- Connected Technology Solutions (CTS) is pleased to announce rollout of patient check-in kiosks with UnityPoint Health of Sioux City.The kiosks, which are similar to those you would see at an airport, are located in the main lobby and in front of the laboratory. A third kiosk will be operational at St. Luke’s Sunnybrook Medical Plaza which is due to open in September.
“It’s really for the convenience of the patient,” admitting manager Tracy White said. “It reduces wait times. It keeps the lobby free from clutter or bottle necking so to speak.”
Before the kiosks were installed, White said patients stood at the front desk and registered with a hospital representative, who provided them with the necessary paperwork. The area around the front desk, she said, could become rather congested.
“It works like a well-oiled machine,” she said. “The kiosks have brought so many benefits to hospitals as far as wait times are concerned. It really makes it easy for our patients and our patients love them.” The hospital’s new website, which will launch in August, White said, will include an online pre-registration system. Patients will be able to enter demographic information from their home computers before leaving for their appointment. Once they get to the hospital, White said they’ll check in at a kiosk to let staff know that they’ve arrived.
The kiosks were profiled by the local news and the video may be viewed here (http://www.youtube.com/embed/xvW1tPp9sLM) [http://www.youtube.com/embed/xvW1tPp9sLM]
