Digital consent

Consent, signed before they arrive.

The moment an appointment is confirmed, the consent form goes to the patient. They read and sign it at home on their own device, and the signed copy is waiting in their record when they walk through the door.

Sent ahead

Read and signed before they arrive.

Patients have time to read the form properly, ask questions if they want to, and sign on their own device at a moment that suits them. No rushing through paperwork in the waiting room, and no clipboards to sanitise between appointments.

  • Linked to the treatment. Each form is stored alongside the specific appointment it belongs to, not loose in a general folder.
  • Locked after signing. Once a patient signs, the form cannot be edited, giving you a reliable record.
  • Timestamped throughout. A clear record of when the form was sent, when it was opened, and when it was signed.
  • Searchable and retrievable. Find any signed form quickly if your indemnity insurer or a CQC inspector asks for it.
Kept with the treatment

Stored exactly where it belongs.

Every signed consent form sits alongside the treatment it documents. Your whole consent history is in Aesta, clear and retrievable. No separate filing cabinet, no relying on paper copies that can be mislaid.

Questions

What clinics ask about digital consent.

Are the consent forms customisable?

Yes. You can tailor forms to your specific treatments and add any questions or declarations your clinic needs. Different services can have different forms.

What if a patient does not sign before they arrive?

The record shows clearly that the form is outstanding. You can have the patient sign on a device at the clinic before the treatment begins, and the signed copy is then stored in the same place as any other consent form.

Is this suitable for CQC record-keeping?

Aesta is built with CQC-style record-keeping in mind. Each signed form is stored alongside the treatment it belongs to, with a clear record of when it was sent, when it was signed, and by whom. It supports the kind of auditable trail inspectors expect to see.
