Websites for General Practice
Introduction
Digitalquill has launched a drive to aid
General Practice Doctors in their development of an Internet
presence. At Digitalquill we
will provide General Practitioners with high-quality, user-friendly
and cost effective websites, which will not only act as a ‘shop
window’ improving the image of the surgery, but will also
help to improve patient care by providing information, education
and communication.
The websites will serve the needs of both modern day general practice
staff and their patients and using our unique Content management
system, we can give you full control over portions of your site
while avoiding the need for knowledge of web technology.

Website Structure
Patient information
1. General information about the practice including:
- Primary care team
- Practice ethos
- Surgery times including out-of-hours and public
holiday arrangements
- Facilities and services available to patients and
how to access them
- A notice board for practice news items and campaigns
- Useful telephone numbers
2. Patient health information:
- Self-help section of common medical illnesses
- Topical health news section, which will be concise,
responsible and informative
3. Links to useful health related
sites
4. Optional services available:
- Secure online repeat prescriptions
- New patient registrations
The Design and development Service
At Digitalquill the team of professional website designers will
design, develop and maintain your personal surgery website based
on the information provided by the surgery.
Once the practice has established the information it wishes to
include, an Internet address site will be assigned. The practice
will be able to choose from a range of design layouts.
The Costs
The design and initiation of each web site
does vary with the size of the practice, but typically costs
between £500-2000,
with a maintenance contract of £30-60/month. The maintenance
contract covers the cost of sustaining the annual registration
for each website domain name, maintenance of the site, updates
and upgrades, and technical support.
These prices represent excellent value for money, as the sites
are serviced throughout the year by our team of professionals.
