When it comes to your medical office, patients will form their first impressions based on the exterior of your office as well as the waiting room and reception areas. Old or damaged building signage, poor condition or incorrect lobby signs, missing ADA/AODA signs – all of these elements have a huge impact on how patients perceive the quality of the care they will receive from your medical practice. In fact, patients tend to remember and share with others details about cleanliness, room ambiance, and their overall first impression.
Choosing the right business signage for your Toronto or Mississauga medical office is an important step in your business strategy. Effective medical office signage should:
- Look professional.
- Support patient privacy.
- Promote cleanliness and safety.
Effective Use Of Medical Office Signs
Effective medical interior and exterior office signs not only showcase your professionalism, but they also add warmth and personality to your office space, which helps patients trust that you will take care of them. In addition, medical complexes can often be difficult to navigate, so having clear and easy to read signs is an important element all medical offices need to consider. Let’s look at how professional signs can add value to your business.
Showcase Your Professionalism
Any type of sign used for your medical office should be:
- Well maintained.
- Inclusive to all clients (find out more about ADA/AODA signs).
- Project stability and trust.
- Well designed using the correct logo, branding, and colours.
Make sure your exterior building signs, as well as all office and lobby signs, project the image you want visitors to remember. Also, consider using plaques to showcase accreditations and awards in the lobby or waiting room areas.
Patient Privacy
The signs that can help provide privacy are:
- Clear and easy to read wayfinding signs for directions and rooms can reduce the number of patients asking for directions.
- Applying a frosted etched glass film allows light to enter while maintaining patient privacy.
Safety And Cleanliness
Choosing office and lobby signs and 3D dimensional letters made from metal, such as stainless steel or aluminum, means that your signs will be easy to clean and won’t retain germs and dust.
All of your medical office professional signage should be strategically placed to let patients know of any stairs, steps, or other potential hazards they should be aware of. Using well-lit signage is also another way of making sure your space is safe for visitors.
