Hospital Signs, Banners & Posters for All Your Needs

FAQs

How to choose the right sign for my medical facility?

All the materials for medical facilities need to be resilient, as the outdoor signage faces harsh weather conditions, while the indoor hospital signs are exposed to regular cleaning with heavy chemicals. 

Consider the viewing distance of the hospital signs, keep them uncluttered, and install them in high-traffic areas.

What are the most effective indoor signs for hospitals?

Directional wayfinding signs are must-haves for clinic lobbies and hallways to help patients navigate through. You should also have room identification numbers to mark specific areas. Safety signs are as important as wayfinding and identification signs, as they feature critical information and help patients avoid areas that can be hazardous.

What are the standard colors for medical office signs?

Signage in blue mainly displays general information or wayfinding. Signage in green marks safety equipment or emergency exits. Red is for fire equipment, danger, and stop. Yellow is for caution and physical hazards.

What materials to choose for hospital sign products?

For the interiors, acrylic and PVC are ideal as they're easy to clean with medical-grade disinfectants and resist scratches. Aluminum and its subtypes work best for outdoor signs and parking areas due to its weather resistance.

Can I customize the sign and include my company logo and other details?

Yes, with Square Signs, you can have fully personalized signage solutions, containing your clinic’s logo, brand colors, plus any other customizable element connected to your brand.

Can I include a specific room name in a sign?

What are common hospital sign symbols?

Universal symbols include the wheelchair icon for accessible facilities, the International Symbol of Access for handicap parking, and the "H" for hospital locations.

How can signs improve wayfinding at medical facilities?

Patients feel more comfortable when they see navigational signs that lead them to specific destinations. They can find any department in the hospital with ease.
