Mazeikiai Health needed a more accessible and mobile-friendly website to ensure residents could quickly find health programs, preventive service schedules, and educational content.

Mazeikiai Health is a public health institution under the Mažeikiai municipality, providing services focused on physical and mental well-being, disease prevention, health education, and active lifestyle promotion. The office runs school health programs, consultations, campaigns, and coordinates local wellness initiatives across age groups.

The challenge

The previous website made it difficult for residents to access relevant services or health campaign details, especially on mobile devices. Health programs were listed in dense menus, and important updates—like screenings, consultations, or activity schedules—were hard to spot.

From an inclusion standpoint, the site lacked accessibility essentials such as ARIA roles, skip links, structured headings, and readable color contrast. These gaps limited access for elderly visitors and people using assistive tools.

Technically, the website suffered from performance issues due to large, uncompressed media files and no caching or lazy loading, resulting in a slow and cluttered user experience on mobile networks.

STRENGTH IN NUMBERS

Business impact

We redeveloped the Mazeikiai health site using WordPress with Elementor, focusing on simplicity, clarity, and mobile-first responsiveness. Primary services—such as Preventive Programs, Events, Consultations, and School Initiatives—were reorganized into clearly visible homepage blocks with direct links.

What We Did​

The visual style was refreshed using light spacing, bold section titles, and CTA buttons for quicker orientation. Icons and color signals guide users through program types.

Accessibility features were added, including skip navigation links, structured headings (H1–H3), ARIA landmark roles, keyboard-friendly navigation, and full alt text coverage for images and icons—aligning the site with WCAG 2.1 AA guidelines.

For performance, we enabled lazy loading, optimized image assets, introduced CSS/JS minification, and configured caching rules to reduce load times—especially critical for mobile users in rural areas.

Finally, we equipped the Mazeikiai health team with ready-to-use content templates, allowing them to independently post health campaigns, event summaries, and educational materials in a consistent, accessible format.
