Hudson County, NJ (PRWEB) January 23, 2014
CarePoint Health is pleased to announce that its website has been fully translated into Spanish and is available at http://www.carepointhealth.org. This is the first and only bilingual health care system website available in Hudson County. CarePoint Health is Hudson County’s leading provider of quality, patient-focused health care services, and includes Bayonne Medical Center, Christ Hospital, Hoboken University Medical Center, as well as CarePoint Health Plans.
The CarePoint Health website is designed to meet the growing needs of the Spanish speaking community. According to U.S. Census data, 280,000 Hudson County residents identify as Hispanic or Latino, a number that represents approximately 45% of the population of the area served by CarePoint Health. To better communicate and to meet the health care needs of this important demographic, CarePoint Health committed to a page by page translation of its website. The result is an online portal that is inclusive of all members of the CarePoint Health community. A simple click enables visitors to toggle between the Spanish and English versions of the site, creating a seamless user experience.
The CarePoint Health website provides access to critical health and wellness information, opportunities for community outreach and links to the organization’s social media initiatives, including Twitter, Facebook and Google+. As the entry point for many patients and their families, the website is a vital resource for the region.
