How to promote telehealth to your patients

The healthcare industry is using promotional products to introduce the idea of virtual visits to patients.

The telemedicine revolution exploded when COVID-19 struck in the U.S. in early 2020. Doctors began using video conferencing to see and talk to patients remotely instead of in person. The digital connection continues to prevent the spread of the virus in healthcare settings.

Hospitals, medical clinics and urgent care centers are using promotional products to advertise their telehealth options. Many organizations are printing their logos and telehealth call lines on giveaways placed in waiting rooms or handed out at health fairs and other events.

Personalized tote bags and drawstring bags are hot items at health fairs and screenings. The large imprint areas provide plenty of space for printing logos, social media icons, contact information and messages.

Most popular: Polypropylene Drawstring Bag

3. Pens

The biggest advantage of custom pens — and the reason they’re one of the most popular promotional products on the market — is they’re used every day! Place logo pens in a basket in your lobby and boost your brand.

4. Hand sanitizer

As long as COVID-19, the flu and other illnesses exist, there will always be a need for hand sanitizer. Give them to patients and keep a few hand sanitizer sprays available for your staff.

5. Stress balls

Calm sick patients by giving them custom stress balls to squeeze. The fun shapes such as hearts and capsules can be a physical and mental boost for someone not feeling well.

6. Phone stands

Make it easy for your patients to talk to you hands-free with personalized phone stands. Plus, your name will get plenty of exposure when these are taken to work, school and other public places.

7. Screen cleaners
