Professional sign systems and branding packages help patients feel more comfortable in a medical facility, leading to an overall better experience. High-quality signs show you run a top-notch healthcare facility. Below are a few types of signs common in healthcare facilities.
Types of Custom Healthcare Signs
Lobby Signs
Lobby signs are the first thing patients see when they enter your facility. It’s important to make sure they are welcoming and informative. Directional signs in the lobby area help patients find their way to the right department or waiting room. Adding signs with the names of doctors, services, visiting hours, and amenities help inform patients as they enter the building, leading to less stress and anxiety.
Monument Signs
Monument signs make your facility more visible. With a large and prominent monument sign you ensure patients and visitors easily find your facility. If you’re located on a busy street, a monument sign helps patients find the proper entrance. And if you have multiple buildings on your property, multiple monument signs are an option to help patients identify which building they are looking for.. They are typically made of stone or brick with large lettering which is often lighted.
Room Number Signs
Identifying the correct room is essential in a hospital. Room number signs help patients, staff, and visitors find their way to the correct room. Room number signs are made of vinyl or metal and are placed on patient room doors or walls adjacent to the doors. Room number signs are also used to indicate special services or departments.
ADA Signs
Ensuring compliance with the American with Disabilities Act is key to healthcare facilities running smoothly. Your facility needs to have the proper ADA signs to ensure people with disabilities can enter, read signs, park, and find their way around the building.
Signs and Healthcare Facilities
Custom signs improve the way a facility functions, making it easier for patients to find their way, reducing stress and frustration, and leaving a lasting positive impression on new patients and guests.
