User-focused design and content reflect Community Hospital's dedication to patient-focused care.
Cedar Rapids, IA - November 12, 2009 - Geonetric, an online solutions provider for the healthcare industry, and Community Hospital of the Monterey Peninsula recently unveiled a new website.

"Our new site is focused on our audience and their needs.

"Geonetric helped us build a website that represents the organization we are today and meets the demands of our diverse audiences. They have been a great partner to work with."
The site was built on Geonetric's award winning software, VitalSite, and features functionality that allows users to find doctors, locations and services. It also offers classes and events, volunteer forms and eCommerce functionality.
Community Hospital and Geonetric will continue to expand the hospital's social media presence and develop online marketing campaigns around major service lines.
