After acquiring many hospitals across Australia and New Zealand with outdated websites, Healthe Care needed a new, centralised and scalable website framework that can be replicated for 35+ hospitals and any new acquisition. This would replace the fragmented and costly method of building a new website for every hospital in their portfolio.
Based on stakeholder insights, Yump developed design prototypes in desktop and mobile that were extensively tested by patients accessing four main service areas – surgical, maternity, mental health and rehabilitation. We also conducted SEO research to find the most strategic keywords for each hospital type, and built a groundbreaking cloning tool that allows Healthe Care the ability to replicate a selected website theme for each new hospital.

The revitalisation of Healthe Care Australia’s websites have been a resounding success. Meeting business objectives, stakeholder expectations and patient needs, the new website framework is not just mobile-optimised, SEO-focused and user-friendly for patients, it is also a scalable and cost-effective solution for creating new hospital websites. We will continue to monitor their overall impact as more sites are rolled out across the Healthe Care hospital network.
