Real products, live prices, in stock now ## Key takeaways - One ticket for the day - Each doctor, own line - Fewer people in the corridor - Fair for everyone ## Why it matters The outpatient department sees the most patients and the longest waits. Patients arrive at the same time in the morning, and the doctors see them at different speeds. A queue system lets patients sit, wait by number and be called to the room when the doctor is ready. **One ticket for the day**: The patient keeps the number through registration and consultation. **Each doctor, own line**: Calls from each room keypad show on the OPD screen. **Fewer people in the corridor**: Patients wait in seats, not outside the consulting room. **Fair for everyone**: Walk-ins and bookings both get numbers, with priority for emergencies if you set it up. ## How a patient moves through it How a patient moves through it Arrive at OPDTake a ticket for registration RegistrationNumber called, folder opened Nurse stationWeight, temperature and basic checks Doctor's roomNumber called by the room keypad Lab, pharmacy or billingNext ticket if needed ## What to check before you buy | Check | Why it matters | | --- | --- | | Rooms in the OPD | One keypad per consulting room | | Ticket choices | Registration, review and new patient lines are common | | Screen position | Visible from every seat and from the corridor entrance | | Seating | Plan seats so patients are not blocking walkways | | Priority tickets | For elderly, mothers with infants and emergencies | | Voice | Calls the number and room for patients who cannot see | | Backup power | Hospital generator and a UPS for the kiosk and display | ## How we set it up 1. **Count rooms and counters**: We list every consulting room, nurse station and counter. 2. **Fit the kiosk**: Placed where patients enter, away from the doorway. 3. **Mount screens**: One in the main waiting area and one in each side corridor if needed. 4. **Install keypads**: Each room gets a keypad and a short training session for the doctor and nurse. 5. **Test at peak time**: We test on a busy morning and adjust the call order. ## Available now at Qyvea These are real products from the Qyvea store with live prices.
