Having spoken to our Volunteers manning the helpdesk adjacent to the Infopoint Help Points we are assured that the freephone lines direct to the taxi and public transport information are well used and invaluable to our patients and visitors alike. The Help Points look good, are easy to use and are a valuable addition to our existing patient services.
Nick Bastow, Facilities Manager, Wrightington, Wigan and Leigh NHS Trust
When you’re in hospital making services more convenient makes the experience less stressful. The new phones save time and money, and are a great way for our patients, visitors and staff to access a range of services at the touch of a button.
Margaret Gilligan, Patient Experience Matron, Stockport NHS Foundation Trust
The ease-of-use to access the services covered by Infopoint is excellent. In my opinion as a Patient Representative, any service that can help the patient, advise them of other services available, make contact easy and come at no cost is a very rare occurrence and one I feel does a very essential and valuable job.
