On April 1, our client, JPS Health Network, launched a new intranet which will serve as the primary internal communications vehicle for its 4,700 employees. The before and after pictures shown above illustrate the vast improvement in their intranet.

The intranet now features an easy to navigate, clean and organized design that allows employees to effortlessly access important information or documents.

Our team at Schaefer designed the site and oversaw its development, which was done by the JPS Health Technology Solutions department. The key to completing this undertaking was management of the project on-site at JPS and using a very hands-on approach with the all the departments involved. With this transformation, JPS will be better able to communicate and serve its employees.

Approximately 6 percent of individuals in Tarrant County have been diagnosed with diabetes. Diabetes complications can be serious and include heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure, blindness, kidney disease, neuropathy and amputation.

Given this, JPS Health Network identified the need to educate Tarrant County of the issue and create awareness that JPS is a resource that can help patients control diabetes.

That’s where we came in.

We developed a campaign that sent a strong message with visual punch that isn’t expected from traditional healthcare marketing.

The campaign executions include outdoor, print and transit and can be seen around Tarrant County now.
