Improving Pediatric Patient Experience

Pediatric clinics present a unique challenge for patient experience management. There are all the standard requirements linked with assisting patients in navigating medical procedures, such as streamlining patient flow, reducing waiting-room anxiety, and ensuring transparency and communications. But then there's more, because we are dealing with children and their parents.

Q-Flow® offers children's clinics a unique flavor of customer experience: one that makes waiting for the doctor as pleasant as possible for both the young patients and their family members.

 

 

Avatar Queue Management

The key component of our pediatric patient experience solution is our patented Avatar Queue Management system. In this system, queue tickets and numbers are replaced by images: animals, cartoon figures, spaceships, food, etc.

The process is as follows:

  1. The child and his parent(s) arrive at the clinic and check-in using a kiosk.
  2. The kiosk presents available "avatars" from the software's vast, expandable library of images.
  3. The child chooses his favorite avatar.
  4. The kiosk prints the selected avatar on paper – along with any additional, configurable information.
  5. The avatar is then shown on digital signage as "waiting in line" alongside other patient's avatars.
  6. If the patient journey extends to other departments, the same avatar will continue to escort and represent the child on digital displays.
