World Wide Web Communications Launches Alzheimer Portal
Site provides a single point of entry for
comprehensive information and resources on Alzheimer's disease
Cherry Hill, New Jersey, November 13, 2002 - World Wide Web Communications,
Inc. (WWWCOMM), a digital solutions provider, today announced the launch
of alzinfo.org, a website developed for the Fischer Center for Alzheimer's
Research Foundation in New York. The web site is the culmination of a
15-month initiative to develop and implement an e-solution that encompasses
the re-architecture and redesign of the Foundation's website with the
goal of improving accessibility and flexibility to those seeking information
and services from the Fischer Center Foundation.
Specific project objectives for alzinfo.org's initiative included providing
a single point of entry for comprehensive information and resources on
Alzheimer's disease. The site is for caregivers, family members, and people
living with Alzheimer's, and anyone who has an interest in conquering
this devastating disease.
To meet the Foundation's objectives, WWWCOMM created an electronic business
channel for the organization to improve the efficiency of common interactions
between the Foundation and its audience. The site provides information
and guidance on Alzheimer's and facilitates a high degree of self-service
to help improve processing efficiency and service delivery.
On Tuesday, November 12th, The Fisher Center Foundation sponsored the
documentary "Alzheimer's, is there hope?" - which was aired
on public television stations throughout the country. The hour long exploration
of the tragedy of Alzheimer's disease covered the disease from its origins
to recent breakthroughs that give sufferers and caregivers reason for
optimism. The documentary coincided with the official launch of the website.
"This was definitely exciting for us," said Bob Savar, President
of WWWCOMM. "The web site was featured prominently in the show, and
it was gratifying to see all our hard work come to life on the screen.
The site will be a great asset to the understanding of Alzheimer's disease."
Site features include the following: people can donate in a secure e-commerce
enabled area; they can join a community of people interested in the disease
and receive periodic email updates; they can read about the most up-to-date
research that is being done and access a geo-search resource database
of over 100,000 senior care providers. Future enhancements include a chat,
bulletin board, Living Memorium and much more.
