HEALTHCARE WAITING ROOM DISPLAYS

Design for the anxious glance. Now-serving numbers deserve the largest cells on the board — a patient should confirm their position from any seat — with a second column for the room or counter to head to. A multi-department lobby fits one row per department with its own queue number and estimated wait. Fork a healthcare template and use ticket numbers or initials in place of names; the fields are yours to edit, so the layout meets privacy expectations before it meets patients.

Connect the queue so the board is never wrong. Point a live data widget at the JSON or API feed from your scheduling or queue system and now-serving numbers and wait estimates flip within a second of the system advancing — no front-desk relay, no stale whiteboard. Live integrations are part of the Business plan. Practices without an API keep the same board and update it manually from the dashboard, which still pushes to the lobby screen instantly.

Keep secondary messages in their own scene. The queue stays on screen most of the loop; a short notices scene — flu-shot reminders, pharmacy pickup, closing hours — takes fifteen seconds and returns. A multi-site practice manages every lobby from one dashboard: shared notices update everywhere at once, while each location's queue scene stays wired to its own system. When hours change for a holiday, one edit reaches every waiting room in real time.
