Healthcare & waiting rooms

A calmer waiting room, on screen

Patients wait better when they know what is happening. Lumicast puts your queue, opening hours and practice news on screens that reception can update in seconds.

The old way

An anxious room full of questions

Am I next? Was my check-in registered? Where do I collect my prescription? Every unanswered question ends up at the desk, and the assistants answer the same three things all day while the room stays restless.

The Lumicast way

Answer the room before it asks

A now-serving board tells patients where they stand, the hours board covers the practical questions, and rotating practice news makes the wait feel shorter. Reception updates any of it from the browser in seconds.

Templates

Start from a healthcare template

A now-serving board, practice hours with an after-hours card, and a good-to-know board for the waiting room. Pick one, make it yours, and it is on screen in minutes.

Why practices pick Lumicast

Made for how a practice actually runs

Reception stays in control

The next number, a delayed doctor, a changed pickup time: anyone at the desk updates the screen from the browser in seconds.

Nothing sensitive on screen

The board shows only what you put on it: ticket numbers and general information, no patient records and no system access required.

A wait that feels shorter

Rotate practice news, health reminders and the day's information so patients have something useful to read.

Works on the screens you have

The TV already in the waiting room, an Android stick or a Raspberry Pi behind it. No proprietary hardware.

FAQ

Practice questions, answered

Ask us anything →
What hardware do I need?
Any TV with an HDMI port works: the smart TV app, an Android stick, or a Raspberry Pi. You manage everything from the browser.
Is patient data involved?
No. The screens show only the content you author, such as ticket numbers and practice information. Nothing connects to your patient records.
What does it cost?
You can start for free, no payment details required. See pricing for per-screen plans as you grow.
Can the assistants update the queue number?
Yes. The editor runs in the browser at the desk; advancing the now-serving number is a two-second edit that appears immediately.
Can different rooms show different content?
Yes. Every display has its own playlist: the waiting room shows the queue and news, the treatment corridor shows wayfinding, the staff room shows internal notes.
