Ever sat in a GP practice and been drawn in by the TV screen sharing information about local services? That could be you!

We understand you may not know where to start with this - the following should help to guide you in this and our example can be found below. Plus find below an example that we have used across 66 practices in a recent national study.

  1. Decide the content you wish to add

  2. Create your file/s

    • different practices have different systems so we would suggest creating an MP4, as well as a PowerPoint version so that as many practices that can may use it

    • You can create these locally if you have access to a design team

    • Or with notice, we can provide you with a version of the example below

  3. Send a link out to all your local Practice Managers - WeTransfer is usually a quick & safe way to do this

  4. Review this regularly

You can also use this on screens in your diabetes centre, hospital canteens, and anywhere else you can think of.

The file can also be embedded into any web-pages that have the functionality to show animations or put out on your trust social media and YouTube channels.

Alternatively if screens aren’t available how about using a bannerstand in the corner - to draw the eye that bit more than a poster. Here’s an example - if you would like something similar for your area get in touch with alison.northern@uhl-tr.nhs.uk
