MediaZest, the creative digital out-of-home advertising company, announces a new working relationship with Serco Group Plc for the provision of its products to certain of their NHS clients.
The initial product of this relationship is the deployment of what is believed to be the first Virtual Mannequin in a Scottish hospital, in Forth Valley Royal Hospital. The project is live to the public from today following positive testing in the run up to the launch date.
Mike Mackay, Contract Director for Serco at Forth Valley Royal Hospital said, "Serco and our partners at Forth Valley Royal Hospital are delighted to bring about this latest innovation to a hospital that is already packed full of the latest thinking and technology."
Geoff Robertson, CEO of MediaZest, added:
"We are delighted to be working with Serco and we hope this deployment will be the first of many we complete together. Delivering vital health messages through technology is precisely the type of installation where our innovative solutions can be used to better gain attention in crowded, high footfall areas."
