Arrival Kiosk
The Arrival Kiosk is installed on a touch screen computer and placed in the waiting area, ideally where the reception staff can also keep an eye on it.
Remove the keyboard and mouse once started.
Please contact our helpdesk for advice on the touchscreen to purchase. They will complete the installation of the kiosk software once this is connected to your network.
The Practice may choose its own welcome screen.
