The operating angle is no-camera alternatives and no connection to patient records.
03

Next: Snake or observe; mark the exit.
04
Brief privacy and contingency choices before opening. In an open-house welcome period connected to a healthcare waiting room, explain the webcam view before play and keep it separate from attendance, purchase, membership, student, health, or contact records.

If quiet, privacy, accessibility, and service flow are essential; guests arrive in waves and do not share the same context, pause the station before it interferes with the main purpose of an open-house welcome period connected to a healthcare waiting room. Switch to Snake or a no-camera explanation, keep the same marked zone, and stop cleanly.
