New York, New York--The Interactive Media Council (IMC) has awarded the website of the Visiting Nurse Service of New York (www.vnsny.org) their “Healthcare: Best In Class” designation.

The “Best In Class” is the highest honor bestowed by the IMC and represents the very best in planning, execution and overall professionalism. In order to win this award, the site had to successfully pass through a comprehensive judging process, achieving very high marks in each of the judging criteria (Design, Content, Feature Functionality, Usability, Standards Compliance & Cross Browser Compatibility), an achievement attained by only a fraction of sites in the IMC competition each year.

“The Visiting Nurse Service of New York is a valued client and it is a pleasure working with their communications and marketing teams. We’re delighted that this project, which is one of many that we’ve built for the organization, recognizes the achievements of our collaborative efforts,” says Ron Fierman, president of Digital Pulp.
