Waiting Room POD

We have taken delivery today of our new waiting room pod. The pod checks your blood pressure, height, and weight. Please ask reception for a token to use the machine. Please note the machine will not announce your weight.

The machine is easy and simple to use. It will talk you through what to do. Please ensure you do not wear a watch when having your blood pressure checked.

The machine will print a slip with your readings on. Please return your slip to reception ensuring you add you name and DOB on the slip.
