In December ’09 I completed work on a new website for Chez Shea Inn & Spa 225, located in Kinkora, Prince Edward Island. Their website offers information on their rooms, packages and specials and includes a dedicated photo gallery and modules for managing ‘Chez Shea News’ and ‘Spa Specials’.

Nestled in three acres of mature landscape, rolling lawns and tranquil views of rural Prince Edward Island, Chez Shea is Atlantic Canada’s premier sanctuary for both body and mind. Clients are offered a wide choice of reviving, rejuvenating, soothing and relaxing treatments and the Spa’s highly trained therapists tailor the treatments to each client’s individual needs.

Family Practice Nurses Association of Nova Scotia [FPNANS]

Aaron Allen — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 13:16:35 +0000

In July 09 I completed work on a new website for the Family Practice Nurses Association of Nova Scotia. Their mission is to advance Family Practice Nursing in Nova Scotia through collaborative networks and support systems and by promoting their vision and standard of care.

Their website provides a wealth of information and resources for Family Practice Nurses – who for the most part – work in isolation and have limited opportunities and resources to support their practice needs.

With the advent of the H1N1 pandemic, I have been assisting with regular updates (almost daily) on their website to keep their members informed.
