Nawaloka Hospital Services now on mobile app
Nawaloka Hospital, Sri Lanka's first large scale private healthcare
institution, has introduced a mobile application (app) for android

useful options. A version for Apple users will also be available soon.
Information available on this app includes a description of Nawaloka
Hospital and its history, along with current news and events which users

In addtion, with the user's convenience in mind there is a list of
useful telephone numbers, such as emergency numbers, ambulance, ETU
(Emergency Treatment Unit), etc. providing access to this information at
the touch of a button.
Even details of medical packages and the hospital's medical services
can be accessed along with the names of consulting doctors and
consultation times. In addition, Nawaloka Hospital has included a
complete list of their islandwide branch network and contact numbers, so
that patrons may avail themselves of the testing facilities and other
services available at the nearest branch.
The mobile app, which has the additional convenience of a payment
gateway for the reservation of rooms, will facilitate channelling
payments too in the future. Another unique feature available is the
floor plan of the entire hospital, enabling patrons and visitors to find
their way around with ease, saving time spent in making enquiries.
Patrons wishing to reserve rooms have a special option which is a
'Virtual Tour' of the different types of rooms, giving them a 360 degree
view of all the facilities available in each one. This would enable them
to make their choice and reserve at the click of a button without the
hassle of having to visit the rooms first.
In addition, a push notification on this mobile app enables patrons
to have health and lifestyle tips reach them regularly, encouraging them
to achieve and maintain a healthy lifestyle. |
