Overview
Scorpion Healthcare has assisted St. Joseph Hospital with two redesigns of their website. Each new design improved the website's design and usability based on user feedback and prepared it for future projects and features.

The Business Challenge
As the baby-boomer generation reaches the early 60's age bracket, healthcare is becoming a larger concern. Nowadays, research for healthcare providers and hospitals is performed online, and the first impression a person receives from a hospital will often come from a visit to its website.

The question becomes, "What does your website say about your hospital?" Is it inviting, professional and informative - giving visitors the impression that you focus on the details and the quality of all that you do. Or, does it look like little attention was paid to the website? Is it difficult to use and find information? Is it less than professional? With so much attention now paid to a hospital's website, can your institution afford to be without a professionally designed website?

St. Joseph Hospital knew how important their website was to their patients and visitors who were looking for information. But with hundreds of pages and multiple divisions to the hospital, the St. Joseph Hospital team knew it was critical for the information to be organized in an easy-to-use website that was visually appealing.

• Professional, clean and inviting design.
• Updated logo.
• Organization of hundreds of pages of content for easy navigation.
• An integrated site search feature to quickly locate information.
• A content management system for managing website (see Scorpion SiteManager section).

The Solution
The Scorpion staff worked closely with the team at St. Joseph Hospital to design and build the website to meet the needs of all stakeholders. Not only that, but the site was completed with all features listed above in under three months - start to finish. The website was a huge hit with employees, directors and visitors to the website. More information about the content management system can be found below.

Scorpion Healthcare's sister company, Scorpion Design, has designed and built thousands of custom websites. Our most recent design was completed for St. Joseph Hospital in Orange County. To view the design, please visit their website at http://www.sjo.org/.
