What to Play on Your Waiting Room TV

Something your patients will genuinely enjoy looking at. Real View brings original, custom-licensed live views from stunning places around the world to the screens in your practice — a beach at sunrise, a harbour coming to life, a mountain valley in the afternoon light. Real windows to real places, happening right now.

With a display stream you decide exactly what your screen shows. Line up your favourite live views, choose how long each one stays, and place your own adverts between them — this month’s offer, your opening hours, your team, the class timetable. Your customers relax with the view, and see your message while they do.

“A waiting room looking out over the Cornish coast — and every few minutes, a reminder that whitening is half price this month.”

A Calmer Waiting Room, Backed by Research

Decades of research into patient anxiety point the same way: watching views of nature helps people feel calmer while they wait. A calmer waiting room is a more pleasant visit — for your patients, your customers and your team.

457 patients

In a hospital waiting room study, patients who could see nature — real plants, or simply pictures of them — reported lower stress than patients waiting in a plain room.

Beukeboom, Langeveld & Tanja-Dijkstra, 2012 →
Lower pulse rates

In a blood donor waiting room, pulse rates were markedly lower when the screen showed nature scenes than when it showed city scenes — and ordinary daytime television made for a more stressful wait than no television at all.

Ulrich, Simons & Miles, 2003 →
959 people

A 2026 study run by ten research teams in five countries found that people recovered from stress better, by their own account, after watching nature scenes than after watching urban ones.

Everything Your Screen Can Do

🌄

Sequence Multiple Live Views

Line up your favourite live views in one display stream. Set the order and the time on each — a harbour for ten minutes, a mountain lake for twenty — with a gentle fade from one to the next.

🖼️

Your Own Slideshows

Turn your pictures into a polished advert. Offers, opening hours, new services, meet the team — each slide stays up for as long as you decide, with soft cross-fades and music underneath.

🎬

Your Own Video Adverts

Already have a promotional video? Upload it and it plays full screen between the views — with its own sound, with a soundtrack you choose, or silently.

⏱️

You Set the Rhythm

Choose how often an advert appears, and give your most important adverts more weight so they are seen more often. The mix on screen is always yours.

✨

Beautifully Timed

Your adverts arrive at the natural moment — as one view hands over to the next. The view fades out, your advert plays, and the next live view fades in. It feels like a channel made for your space.

🎵

Music and Sound, Your Way

Pick a track from our music library or upload your own for each advert. One switch makes the whole display silent — perfect for a quiet waiting room.

📺

Starts by Itself

Choose the display stream that plays when the TV is switched on. Your team turns the screen on in the morning and everything else simply happens.

📢

Only Your Adverts

The only messages on your screen are yours. Your offers, your news, your brand — between views your customers love to watch.

📊

See What Has Been Shown

Your panel shows which screens are on right now, how many hours your views have been on screen, and how many times each advert has played.

Waiting Room Screens for Every Kind of Practice

Anywhere people wait, relax or gather — and anywhere you have something to tell them.

🦷

Dental & Medical Waiting Rooms

Calming natural scenes put patients at ease, while your slideshows introduce the team, explain treatments and promote this month’s offers.

🏋️

Gyms & Leisure Centres

Big, energising views across the gym floor, with the class timetable, personal training and membership offers appearing between them.

🏠

🏨

Hotel Lobbies & Receptions

A memorable first impression, with your spa, restaurant and events promoted to every guest who walks through the door.

☕

Cafes, Restaurants & Bars

A bistro with a view of the Italian coast — and today’s specials, the new menu and Friday’s live music on screen between views.

💆

Spas & Salons

Tropical beaches and serene forests set the mood, while your treatments, products and gift vouchers take their turn on screen.

💼

Offices & Receptions

A calm focal point for visitors and staff, with company news, welcome messages and achievements shared along the way.

Frequently Asked Questions

The basics

What is Waiting Room Screens?
Waiting Room Screens is the business service from Real View. It turns the TVs in your waiting room, gym, care home, salon or reception into your own channel: live views from beautiful places around the world, playing one after another with a gentle fade between them, and your own slideshows and video adverts in between. You build it in a control panel in your browser, and the screens follow along by themselves.
Is it suitable for a dental practice, GP surgery or care home?
Those are exactly the rooms it was built for. Patients arrive anxious and spend the wait looking at the screen, so what’s on it matters — and the research on nature views and patient stress is why we built the business collection the way we did. Care homes use it in the lounge, where residents watch the coast and the countryside all afternoon.
Can we show practice notices and health information too?
Yes. Anything you can put in a picture or a video can go between the views — appointment guidance, new treatments, meet the team, opening hours over a bank holiday, this month’s offer. Upload it in your panel and the screens pick it up on their own.
Does this put a camera in my building?
No. Nothing is filmed at your premises and no camera is installed. Your screens show live views from cameras in other places, plus the adverts you upload yourself. Your customers, patients and staff are never on screen.
Is it licensed for showing in a business?
Yes. Every view in the business collection is original and licensed for public display, and the music library is cleared for commercial use too. That is what the business subscription is for — you can play it in a reception, a gym or a ward with confidence.
Can I see it working before I sign up?
Yes — the TV on our home page is a real display stream, playing live right now. It runs at a quicker pace there so you can see a few views and an advert inside a minute. On your own screens, each view stays for as long as you choose.

Your screens

What do I need to get started?
Just a TV with an HDMI socket, and your Wi-Fi. We send a small player for each screen, already set up for your account, so there is nothing to install and no app to find. Then pick your views, upload your adverts, and it runs.
Which TVs work?
Any TV or screen with an HDMI socket — smart or not, old or new. The player does all the work, so the TV only has to show the picture.
How do we set a screen up?
Plug the player into the TV and into the power. The TV shows you how to join it to your Wi-Fi from your phone — a minute’s job — and then it starts playing. That’s it.
Can different screens show different things?
Yes. Each screen plays its own display stream, so reception, the gym floor and the treatment rooms can each show a different set of views and a different set of adverts — all from one account.
Does the screen start by itself?
Yes. The player switches the TV on in the morning and off at night, at the times you choose, and plays your display stream all day in between. Nobody needs the remote.
How much internet does it use?
It streams like any online video, so an ordinary business broadband connection is plenty. If you plan to run several screens in one building, mention it when you sign up and we’ll talk it through with you.

Your adverts

Can I put my own adverts on the screen?
Yes — that’s half the value. Upload photos to build a slideshow, or upload a video you already have. Your advert plays full screen between the live views, and the only messages on your screen are yours.
How often do my adverts appear?
You decide. Set how often an advert is due, and give your most important adverts more weight so they come round more often. Adverts arrive at the natural moment — as one view hands over to the next — so it feels like a channel made for your space.
How do I change an advert?
In your control panel, from any computer, tablet or phone. Change it there and the screens pick it up on their own.
Is there sound?
That’s your choice. Each advert can carry its own audio or a track from the music library, and one switch makes the whole display silent — which is how most waiting rooms run it.
Can I use my own music?
Yes. Choose a track from the Real View music library, which is cleared for commercial use, or upload your own for an advert where you hold the rights.
Can I see what has been shown?
Yes. Your panel shows which screens are on right now, how many hours your views have been on screen, and how many times each advert has played.

The views

Where do the live views come from?
From Real View cameras in beautiful places — coastlines, harbours, mountains, beaches and countryside. They’re real windows on real places, happening right now, so they change with the light, the weather and the seasons. Your screen looks different every day of the year.
Can I choose which views appear?
Yes. Browse the collection in your panel, watch any view before you pick it, then put the ones you love in the order you want and set how long each stays on screen.
What happens if a view is unavailable?
Your screen simply moves on to the next view in your list, so the display keeps running smoothly.

Price and getting started

What does it cost?
£39 a month for your first screen and £29 a month for each additional screen — or £390 a year per screen, which gives you two months free. Prices exclude VAT. Everything is included: unlimited streaming, the public display rights, your own adverts, the music library and your control panel.
Is there anything else to pay?
No. There’s no setup fee and no charge for the hours you play. We set your account up for you and send a player for each screen as part of the subscription.
Do you take payment on the website?
No. Signing up on the website tells us what you want. We email you within one working day with your login, and arrange payment with you then.
What happens after I sign up?
We create your account and email your login within one working day. We send a player for each screen, ready to plug in, and you sign in and build your first display stream while it’s on its way.
We have several sites — can you handle that?
Yes. Chains, franchises and care groups are run as one account with tailored pricing across the sites. Tell us how many screens and how many locations and we’ll put the numbers together.
Who is Real View?
Real View TV Ltd is a British company that runs its own live cameras in beautiful places and streams them to televisions — to its own free TV app, and to business screens through this service.
