New NHS Rotherham Website
“We’re delighted to be launching our new website which hopefully will become the main source of health information for Rotherham people.” says Helen Watts, Assistant Director of External Relations.
The new website, which has been designed in-house with the aid of local people, aims to provide a one-stop-shop for all health related information including tips on how to live healthier lifestyles and local health services such as information about family doctors and hospital services. There is also an opportunity to feedback comments on every page so NHS Rotherham can make regular improvements to the site.
Carers Forum Coordinator, Jeanette Mallinder is just one of a group of local people who have helped develop new site;
“I have been really pleased to be involved in developing the new NHS Rotherham website and love the way it’s been influenced by Rotherham people. It’s really user friendly - if I can use it anyone can! Working with carers on a daily basis; I know how vital it is to get the best information at a time and place when you need it. This site certainly achieves this and more.
Research shows that increasingly, people are using the internet to source their health information but it’s really important to ensure that information comes from a reliable source. The NHS Rotherham site acts as a main point of contact where you can get a broad range of health related information with total confidence.
