Basic Television Reception to fully Interactive Networked Services Airwave understands that the requirements of hospitals, hospices and residential homes are different from one site to another and so offers a variety of options from basic television reception to fully interactive networked services. Some sites and facilities may wish to charge for television, while others will offer the service for free. Whatever your wishes the Airwave team can help implement the best possible solution.
Standard Freeview TV Simplicity of use, robust and reliable, an expanding choice of TV and radio content, alongside crystal clear digital pictures and sound quality is of course paramount for sites and patients alike. Freeview has been a blessing for both hospitals and care homes. Straight forward to use and easy to maintain, no wonder both sites and patients love it. Airwave’s dedicated Healthcare TV screens from partners Samsung, Philips, LG and Sharp all boast inbuilt Freeview and Freeview HD boxes meaning no need for an additional set top box. We can provide hospitals all available Freeview channels onto existing RF coax and data networks.
International Channels with Freesat For those hospitals and residential homes with a large number of patients and residents of different nationalities, Airwave’s AirSTREAM technology provides the seamless reception of free international channels, on top of the typical Freeview channel listing, with many channels in HD. Satellite reception covers approximately 98% of the UK, so AirSTREAM is also the perfect solution for hospitals and homes in areas with poor aerial reception seeking alternative solutions. AirSTREAM enables the latest headend technology to deliver free satellite channels directly onto the screens of Samsung Healthcare TVs in a pure digital format.
Sky For care homes and those hospitals looking to provide residents and patients with an expansive entertainment experience, Airwave Healthcare installs Sky to provide the widest range of channels available. From entertainment to news, sport to movies, music to documentaries, Sky offers the ultimate viewing experience.

We are licensed to provide the very latest movies from Hollywood studios such as Universal, Paramount and Dreamworks. Airwave supplies content to entertain both patients and visitors at affordable prices.
