This flexible, Web-based application allows large healthcare organizations to create,
maintain and publish maps that are easy to use and understand. The system maps paths from
multiple start points, or kiosks, to locations on different floors or in different buildings. It can also
be used to publish video and text messages, such as hospital announcements or promotions for
upcoming events. All communications can be customized to reinforce your organization’s existing
brand identity, helping to ensure the delivery of a clear and consistent message across all touch
points.
MediKiosk™ WayFinder supports multiple languages, giving patients the ability to switch
between languages with a simple click. Plus, the task of managing content in numerous languages
