Group Health Cooperative of Eau Claire selects StrandVision’s Digital Signage System

EAU CLAIRE, Wis. (PRWEB) January 5, 2006 -- StrandVision LLC (http://www.strandvision.com), a provider of hosted digital signage services, today announced that Group Health Cooperative of Eau Claire has selected StrandVision to provide a digital information display for its Group Health Dental office in Eau Claire. The digital sign presents information to patients in the waiting area.

“We are constantly looking for ways to better inform our patients about our services and proper dental care,” said Bobbi Potter, Group Health Dental clinic manager. “This innovation will efficiently accomplish our goal with attention-getting style and encourage and promote clinical dialogue between our patients and staff.”

A 42” plasma TV presents rolling images that give information on local weather, news, office hours, treatments, and dental products and services. The information is delivered over the Internet from a StrandVision server. The Group Health Cooperative marketing staff can easily update and manage the content through an easy-to-use Web interface and the changes are immediately sent to the waiting room display.

“Dental offices and healthcare providers are natural markets for StrandVision,” commented Mike Strand, StrandVision founder and CEO. “StrandVision digital signage helps healthcare providers respond to their patients’ needs for information and education in a timely and cost effective manner. We can also help healthcare providers, such as Group Health Dental, develop an additional revenue source through merchandising agreements with local and national partners.”

Problems start when the adult can no longer communicate or is no longer considered mentally competent enough to make their own decisions. When this happens other people step in and try to decide what type of medical treatment the person would want for themselves.
