Patient calling and waiting-room screens, made easy

Call the next patient with one click, and fill the rest of the time with your own health messages, practice news and opening hours. All from one simple CMS that we set up and look after for you.

Patient calling

No more shouting across the waiting room


Patient calling is built into Knightsoft CMS, so there's no separate system to buy or learn.

  1. Type and call

    Reception or the clinician enters the patient's name and room, and clicks "Call patient now".

  2. The screen calls them

    Big, bright, easy-to-read text shows who's next and where to go.

  3. Back to your content

    After the call, the screen carries straight on with your health messages.

  4. Any screen, any room

    Use one waiting-room screen or several. We set up who can call to which screen.

Tips from practices we work with

  • Many practices show a first name and surname initial, to protect privacy.
  • Put the screen where patients can see it from every seat.
  • Keep your normal content short and friendly, so a call always stands out.

Works with Windows, Android and Raspberry Pi players. More about patient calling

Emergency alerts

One message on every screen, instantly


If you need to clear the building or share urgent information, an emergency alert takes over every screen straight away. Clear it and normal content returns.
