- If your Healthwatch changes provider organisations, it would be easy to transfer the contract to a new organisation
What will be different?
-
There will be areas of the template that would be locked down and that you would not be able to edit. This would be to ensure consistency across the Healthwatch network, help maintain accessibility and allow for updates to be made to multiple sites without causing any issues.
-
You will not be able to create any additional functionality or edits to the style yourselves. Any future developments would be discussed and prioritised by a user group. This would make sure that the developments being made are properly tested and that everyone using the template would benefit from the development (rather than similar work happening across the organisation). These changes would then be rolled out to everyone using the template.
