OUR NEW HEALTH KIOSK

To give you more quality face - to - face time wiht your doctor, and to help you avoid appointment times whihc may not be convenient, we are delighted to have invested in some new advanced technology called Healt Kiosk. This can be found in our downstairs waiting room at our Waverley Road Surgery. 

This newly installed equipment gives you greater control and flexibilty over your health as well as allowing our medical staff to use their expertise more efficiently. 

 

What is the Health Kiosk?? 

Health Kiosk is a secure computer system which accurately records your patient data and takes readings such as weight and blood pressure. 

This is not a service to replace you GP surgery staff but an additional resource for our practice to give you the most appropriate attention when you need it. 

We have invested in this technology becuase we think it is important to give back the freedom and ability for our patients to take control of their own health without having to wait for an appointment. 

 

What are the benefits to me as a patient? 

Health Kiosk enables you to perform your own checks such as blood pressure, weight, pulse and alcohol usage without the need for clinical supervision. Your information is then instantly and securely undated into your medical records. This can then immediately be view by the doctors and nurses. 

You can perform these simple checks at your own convenience during our opening hours (without the need of an appointment). This means that when you start your face to face consultation your docotr will already have this key information and will allow you more time to discuss your health concerns. 

 

How does it work ?? 

You simply interact with a touchscreen computer to guide you through the process. After you entre your name and date of birth you follow the easy step by step instructions. 

 

If you do have any difficulty using our health Kiosk please as a member of the reception team and they will be more than happy to assist you.
