The Guidelines Advisory Committee Selects Electramedia™ Website Management System
Flexible, scaleable and easy-to-use technology ensures Ontario’s medical practitioners have immediate access to guidelines and best practices.
Toronto, ON (PRWEB) September 20, 2006 -- Electramedia™, a web design and development company delivering online content management, was recently selected by The Guidelines Advisory Committee (GAC) of Ontario as their website management system of choice.
With ever-changing guidelines, requirements, and policies, the Guidelines Advisory Committee (GAC) promotes better health for the people of Ontario by encouraging physicians and other practitioners to use evidence-based clinical practice guidelines based on best available evidence.
GAC was in need of a dynamic database and website that was functional and user-friendly, and could be used remotely by all employees, across all medical professions. Through a third-party reference, GAC engaged the expertise of Electramedia, who recommended using their Your Web Department™ website management system. Consequently, a fully accessible database and website with advanced functionality was soon developed.
The new website now provides up-to-date information on the status of topics, providing GAC with more opportunities to interact with their users through surveys and forms. Additionally, users are able to pull information directly from the database and present their findings online. Remote access and the incorporation of a PDA download function into the package sealed the deal.
GAC experienced all the benefits that Electramedia’s Your Web Department™ website management solution delivers including:
| | - Quick and easy to use – For even the very beginner
- Self serve - Saves time
- Affordable - No additional costs for website updates
- Control - End-user manages website
- Flexible - Website can be changed quickly to react to competitive landscape
- Ease of Mind - Stop worrying about hardware, software, viruses, and backup

According to Paul Chato, President, Electramedia, "Government sponsored medical research and advisory organizations are often constrained in terms of resources and budgets. By using the Your Web Department™ website management solution, GAC has provided primary care workers in Ontario and beyond with immediate access to essential medical documents and better healthcare to patients.”
With all employees permitted access, coupled with the technology’s ease-of-use, there has been a significant decrease in the amount of time staff are managing and changing content. According to Jess Rogers, Program Manager, GAC, "We are very pleased with our new website hosted and maintained on the Your Web Department™ website management system and accompanying database developed by Electramedia. Our needs were understood from beginning to end and the process was a great experience for our staff and website users. We look forward to future innovations for our website."
