Benefits for your Clinic

Discover why you should install Health TV Channel in your clinic or medical centre.

Reassure and engage patients

Waiting rooms can be stressful places. Our content helps patients and whānau feel more at ease, while also sharing health messages that encourage positive action and healthier lifestyles.

Communicate important updates

From flu clinic dates to holiday closures, patients often miss notices on posters or leaflets.

Health TV Channel puts your updates where everyone can see them - on the big screen, in the moment, when it matters.

Create a calmer environment

Instead of a silent or noisy waiting room, patients have something useful to watch.

This reduces perceived wait times and creates a more positive atmosphere for both patients and staff.

74% of patients agree wait times feel shorter.

Reduce admin pressure

Reception teams answer the same questions all day — about fees, after-hours care, or repeat prescriptions.

Health TV Channel takes care of the basics upfront, so patients arrive at the desk calmer, better informed, and easier to serve.

What our clinics say...

“We have found Health TV great for our waiting areas. It keeps patients informed of any important updates within the practice, general practice information, and informative education on various health issues. It also keeps patients entertained while waiting for appointments. Patients seem to enjoy it.”

Mell Allport - Operations Manager, Taradale Medical Centre

“Health TV has proven to be an invaluable information hub in our clinic waiting area, enabling us to effectively share a wide range of services with our patients. Also, providing us with peace of mind, knowing that our patients are always kept informed. We especially like the ability to program the TV screens to align with our opening hours, streamlining our daily operations and allowing us to focus on other priorities.”

The Management team - Henderson Medical Centre

“Health TV is enjoyable, running along in the background of our waiting area, and patients comment that it is great.”

June Cumberland - Gisborne Primary Care Manager, Puhi Kaiti Clinic, Ngāti Porou Oranga

“Before Health TV, very few people knew what a PHO does and what primary health services entail, but now they do, which is a huge achievement. I think it is an awesome platform to advertise the services we provide, and it has been very popular with our clients and visitors alike.”

Sheryl Hall - Team Leader Reception/Administration, Nelson Bays Primary Health

“We love our recent addition of Health TV in our reception area. It’s great to know our patients are getting up-to-date health info, and it’s stress-free for us as the content updates monthly. We’ve had excellent feedback from our patients.”
