Asante Health System Strengthens Regional Presence with New Website Created by Geonetric
Cedar Rapids, Iowa (April 7, 2009) - Asante Health System recently launched a Web presence that helps position the organization as a regional leader in their southern Oregon market. Asante Health System and their Web solutions partner, Geonetric, launched the new corporate site, as well as two separate sites for the health system's award-winning hospitals: Rogue Valley Medical Center and Three Rivers Community Hospital.
"Geonetric helped us create an exceptional Web presence that meets the needs of our patients, our community, and our internal stakeholders," says Scott Kelly, chief strategy and business development officer for Asante Health System. "From improving our ability to interact with patients, to better representing our organizational structure, our new Web presence meets our diverse goals. Geonetric was very responsive to all our needs, especially when providing guidance for improving our content presentation."
The site was built on Geonetric's award winning software, VitalSite®. At launch, Asante's sites feature a sophisticated calendar and events module that allows administrators to enter events centrally for all three facilities. The new site also offers provider, service and location directories, as well as a press center.
In addition, the redesign provided an opportunity to review and update all content, as well as add intriguing design elements such as Flash to engage site visitors.
