Xen X5

A huge issue for all local government offices is getting the word out to the people that need to hear it. Many services are utilising the internet as their primary method, which whilst effective can risk excluding the most vulnerable citizens who may not have access to the internet.

They are an ideal way to reach out to the local population, providing them with vital information and perhaps reaching people that didn’t even know they could benefit from a service you offer!

The touch screen kiosks can be located in centre receptions to ease the burden on reception staff or alternative sites within your community; such as local shops or community facilities where you can extend your reach to those who wouldn’t normally use your facilities.

Using these functions will enable you to distribute information, help your local community to reach information on health, travel, leisure, employment and social issues, plus much more.

Example;

- Earlier this year we mentioned how BBC’s Working Lunch, the business, consumer and personal finance show, decided to feature our very own kiosks, focusing on how they are being used to help people get online.

- Whereas in Education, in January, Musicians of the Royal Academy of Music benefitted from a new practice-room booking system that enabled them to practice their compositions day and night. The Xen X4 kiosk was installed on the campus to making practice room booking easier; providing students with a fast and convenient method to book one of the practice and rehearsal rooms.

NHS and Health

Touch Screen Systems for are working to help NHS, PCT’s, NHS Choices and Healthcare Professionals to:

  • Improve public awareness
  • Educate public with services
  • Ask public their opinion of services
  • Get feedback on particular issues

Internet kiosks offer people interactive ways of learning about the benefits of a health and active lifestyle through competition and games, or simply distributing information.

Kiosks can include e-triage; Sexual Health Kiosks; Drugs, Alcohol and Stop-Smoking Kiosks and Dental Health Kiosks. Furthermore, examples include Hospital and A&E Kiosks; Mental Health Kiosks and Patient Satisfaction Survey Kiosks.

Example;

- Elsewhere in Corporate, ‘n power’, one of the UK’s largest energy suppliers, trialled a self-service kiosk booking system to manage its hectic Flexi-Desk work schedule. The Xen X5 kiosks, located at n power’s Solihull office, enabled its 8,000 plus staff to reserve temporary desk space.

The deployment was another example of how Touch Screen kiosk systems are thriving within businesses, adding efficient practices to the working day.
