Glasses display

The importance of having a well designed and coordinated ‘glasses display‘ system to show off your finest designer frames is high on the wish lists of most self respecting opticical practice owners. It is often the case with owner managed practices that the cheap and realistic alternative to having a slick interior refit or purpose made display is to purchase a few select pieces of furniture from places such as IKEA. Hardly a formula for success but in a turbulent market this can largely be forgiven.

But what if you do have designs and making your practice stand out from the crowd? Perhaps a niche boutique style that connects with your customer demographic or a bespokely designed refit that gears your practice up for investment or aquisition?

The answer comes in the shape of one of the leading brands in the UK and Europe who manufacture, supply and install stylish bespoke optical retail interiors for both big brand high street institutions plus local independent opticians looking to raise their game.

Orbis – The flying eye hospital

45 million people in the world are blind, but 80 percent don’t need to be. A cure is often simple and inexpensive, but in poor countries, help is often out of reach. ORBIS UK is a London-based affiliate of ORBIS International. ORBIS UK is committed to bringing sight-saving care to the developing world.

On approaching the flying eye hospital, it looks like any of the other passenger jets on the runway waiting to take holidaymakers to exotic destinations. But this DC-10 jet is exceptional – it houses the only airborne operating theatre for eye treatment in the world.

Its mission is to tackle avoidable sight loss and its charter reaches developing countries where 90% of the world’s 45 million blind people live. Next stop is India, a country that has one of the highest rates of blindness among children – one in five of the world’s blind children is Indian.

Hospital with wings
The flying eye hospital was the vision of one man, Dr David Paton, an eminent eye surgeon at the Baylor College of Medicine in Texas, US.

In the 1970s, while touring throughout the developing world, he was shocked by the state of eye care services he found in these countries.

Although the doctors he met there wanted to learn the necessary skills to cure blinding diseases like cataracts, glaucoma and retinoblastoma, the costs and practicalities involved prevented it. Dr Paton’s solution was a mobile teaching hospital.

With a fully equipped plane, donated by United Airlines, doctors trained in the latest ophthalmic techniques could bring their surgical knowledge and skills to the doctors and patients in developing countries.

  • The local doctors can then use their newly learned skills in their homeland.
  • The first hospital with wings was launched in 1982, its maiden voyage being to Panama.
  • Since then, the flying eye hospital has visited 75 countries and saved the sight of tens of millions of people.

GP Health Centres – naming and branding

June 13th, 2009 | Posted in Blog, news | No Comments

GP Health Centres – naming and branding
In response to a number of queries asking for advice on the branding and naming of the new GP Health Centres, a set of principles have been agreed by the NHS. The principles below have been developed in conjunction with primary care leads in policy, communications and primary care leads and Strategic Health Authorities.

Naming
Centre names should follow as closely as possible our existing naming guidance that names should be:

* clear and descriptive – not conceptual or abstract;
* written out in full – without the use of acronyms or abbreviations;
* contain a geographical reference where possible.

NHS support using the term health centre but advise against names such as, health plus, health consortium and primary care centre as these terms are not widely understood and therefore not clear and descriptive.

Anytown Health Centre would therefore be acceptable.

The centre name should not include the name of the provider, as in text it could appear as a paid for private service. This will help communicate that these are fundamentally NHS services.

For the latest information on all NHS brand guidelines please visit the NHS brand web site.
