Services · Website development · Healthcare websites

Healthcare websites that hold up to UK regulators in all four nations.

Codeeo delivers healthcare website development UK providers can roll out across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. We build websites for private hospital and clinic groups, dental and optical chains, care operators and community health providers, with each nation's regulator, professional registration, UK GDPR, PECR, advertising rules and accessibility handled in the structure. One CMS serves every site, and local managers edit their own pages. All discovery and reviews take place by video call.

The website is a public information and enquiry channel, not a clinical tool. It makes no claims about outcomes, and every page that describes care is approved by your clinical governance team before it goes live.

Platform capabilities

One website platform, four nations' rules.

A provider with clinics in Bristol, Glasgow, Cardiff and Belfast answers to four different systems regulators: the CQC in England, Healthcare Improvement Scotland and the Care Inspectorate in Scotland, Healthcare Inspectorate Wales and Care Inspectorate Wales, and the RQIA in Northern Ireland. Professional regulators such as the GMC, GDC, NMC, HCPC, GPhC and GOC apply across the UK, and so do UK GDPR, PECR and the CAP Code. Healthcare website design UK groups can scale has to hold those rules in data, not in copy that someone remembers to update. The capabilities below are the building blocks we combine for national providers; the mix depends on your services and where you operate, and your clinical governance and data protection leads sign off each one.

Explain your project
  • Regulator details by nation

    Each location record knows which nation it sits in and shows the right regulator. English sites with a rating display it through the CQC widget, as Regulation 20A requires, while Scottish, Welsh and Northern Irish sites show their registration with the relevant body and a link to its latest report.

    Every location shows the right regulator without manual edits.

  • Location architecture for national groups

    A single location database feeds region pages, site pages, clinician listings and map listings. Opening a new clinic means adding one record, choosing its services and assigning its team. Closures redirect to the nearest open site, so patients and search engines never land on a dead page.

    The site grows with the group without growing messier.

  • Registration fields for every profession

    Profiles hold the right registration for each professional, whether GMC, GDC, NMC, HCPC, GPhC or GOC, with a link to the public register. Specialist titles appear only where the register supports them, and dental profiles carry the qualification details GDC guidance expects.

    Credentials are consistent and checkable across every site.

  • Welsh language and bilingual pages

    For sites in Wales, the CMS supports paired Welsh and English pages with a language switch on every page and translation status tracking. NHS bodies in Wales have their own Welsh language duties; private providers can choose a level of Welsh content that suits their patients, and the structure supports either.

    Welsh speaking patients get a real choice of language.

  • Advertising rules built into templates

    Treatment templates centre on the consultation, include fields for risks and suitability, and leave no slot for promoting prescription only medicines, which may not be advertised to the public. Claims on your own site fall under the CAP Code, so an approval step records who checked each page against it.

    Marketing teams publish faster with fewer compliance surprises.

  • Price, plan and membership pages

    Under the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024 the drip pricing rules are in force, so any price shown must include unavoidable fees. Its subscription contract rules are expected in 2027, which matters for dental plans and health memberships; we build plan pages so terms, renewal and cancellation are easy to update when they apply.

    Pricing information is clear today and ready for the next rules.

  • Deposits and payments where needed

    Some providers take a consultation deposit or sell products such as eye care supplies alongside services. Where the site takes money, we use a payment provider that handles Strong Customer Authentication, show VAT treatment as your accountant advises, and set out cancellation rights in line with the Consumer Contracts Regulations where they apply.

    Payments are compliant without turning the site into a shop.

  • Privacy, consent and data flows

    Health data is special category data under UK GDPR, so enquiry forms collect the minimum and are delivered encrypted to the right team. PECR consent governs cookies and tracking, with non-essential tags blocked until accepted. We document each data flow for your records of processing and any questions from the ICO.

    Your data protection lead can see exactly where patient data goes.

  • Accessibility to WCAG 2.2 AA

    Templates are tested with screen readers, keyboard navigation and zoom, and content guidance keeps reading levels plain. Public sector bodies have specific accessibility regulations, while every provider has Equality Act duties to make reasonable adjustments; a WCAG 2.2 AA build and a published accessibility statement cover both.

    Patients with disabilities can find information and get in touch unaided.

  • Central control with local editors

    Roles let a central team own brand, policy and clinical templates while site managers edit opening times, team members, news and vacancies for their own location only. Every change is versioned, clinical pages carry review dates, and reports show which pages are overdue for review across the estate.

    Local teams keep pages current without risking national content.

Who this is for

Four kinds of UK provider that need a national website.

A national healthcare website is less about design and more about structure: who owns which content, how locations and practitioners are stored, and how regulatory details stay accurate across an estate that keeps changing. As a healthcare web development company UK groups can work with remotely, we focus on that structure first. These are the providers we most often build for. Smaller providers planning to expand from one city into several are a fit too, because a structure built for growth costs far less than rebuilding a single site later.

01

Private hospital and clinic groups

Groups with hospitals and outpatient clinics in several regions need consultant search across the estate, specialty pages, insured and self-pay routes and location pages that each rank locally. We build a shared consultant database, specialty templates and a location model that handles a consultant working at three sites without duplicating their profile.

One profile, many locations, no copies drifting out of date.

02

Care groups in more than one nation

Operators with homes in England and Scotland, or England and Wales, face different regulators, inspection reports and terminology. We build home pages that display the right regulator automatically, a group level careers area, and enquiry routes to each home manager, so families get local detail and the group keeps consistent policies.

03

Dental, optical and hearing chains

Chains need practice pages, NHS and private service explanations that differ by nation, plan and membership pages, and practitioner profiles with GDC, GOC or HCPC details. We connect the site to your practice software for booking requests where an API exists, and keep NHS availability in a field each practice updates.

NHS arrangements differ by nation, so pages should too.

04

Community providers delivering NHS contracts

Social enterprises, community interest companies and independent providers running NHS funded services must often meet information and accessibility requirements set by their commissioners. We build sites that explain eligibility and referral routes clearly, support self-referral where the contract allows, and give each service area its own contact and location details.

Six phases for a multi-site, multi-nation rollout.

  1. 01Estate and governance discoveryVideo workshops map every site, nation, service and profession, and establish who owns brand, clinical, regulatory and privacy content across the organisation.
  2. 02Content model and rulesWe design the data model for locations, practitioners, services and regulators, and record each nation's display requirements as rules the CMS enforces.
  3. 03Design systemAccessible components, page templates and a pattern library tested to WCAG 2.2 AA, so every future page looks consistent without new design work.
  4. 04Build and integrateCMS, templates, search, forms, consent and integrations with your CRM, practice systems, HR platform and payment provider, built and tested on staging.
  5. 05Pilot regionWe launch one region or nation first, train its managers, fix what real use reveals, then roll the platform out to the remaining sites in agreed waves.
  6. 06National launch and governanceRedirects from legacy sites, search and analytics checks, a content review calendar and an agreed support model hand the platform to your team.

Technology

What we build this with.

National sites usually run on a headless CMS with a Next.js front end, or on WordPress multisite where editors prefer it. Hosting sits in UK or EU regions with a CDN, firewall, backups and monitoring, and integrations are documented so your IT team can support them.

Questions from providers operating across the UK.

We model the nations as data, then pilot one region before rolling out.

Each location record carries its nation, regulator, services and team, so the right details appear automatically. We design templates once, test them in a pilot region with real managers and patients, fix what that reveals and then migrate the rest of the estate in waves. Timing depends on site count, integrations and how long your approval layers take, and we agree a phased plan in discovery rather than one large launch date. The pilot also tests your approval process, which is often where national projects slow down, so the later waves move faster.
