How to provide colour codes

PKB needs the colours as HTML colour codes i.e. a series of # and six characters, e.g. #000000 for black or #ffffff for white

...

Button accent The colour of the small buttons, and the chevrons within the large buttons can be recoloured.This should be a strong colour to provide sufficient contrast with the white icons.
Dashboard menu and sub-page menus. The colour of the tiles on the homepage and the navigation bar. We can also change the icons to white to allow for deeper colours to be used.

Things to take into account:

• Accessibility: make sure that the colour-contrast of the background and foreground is at least 3:1

• Match between your system and PKB: try to use similar colours for similar components (e.g. backgrounds, buttons, menus). The user interface should be familiar for the user.

Considerations if thinking of changing the name from PKB

There are some really important considerations to be aware of when thinking of changing the name from Patients Know Best to something else. Historically, some of our customers have done this and we have compiled their learnings below to help you decide whether to use a locally branded name yourself and if so how to do this effectively.

...

• Email notifications to patients about new data in their record will come from no-reply-uk@patientsknowbest.com. You can however add your own footers to these emails when the data comes from your organisations should you choose to, to remind them of your branding. This is explained in more detailhere.

• There is aManual within the system (via the Help button) where users can access online support. This Manual is PKB branded.

• If the PKB user needs to contact ourHelpdesk, this can be accessed from our Help Manual. The Helpdesk is PKB branded.

• If you are considering changing the name, logo and branding of PKB for your organisation it is worth considering what other names have already been used elsewhere. If you choose a name that has already been used by a different organisation but you have different branding designs then it will be confusing if a patient is ever to use PKB with both organisations/regions.

• PKB makes many communications resources available for use in our Communications Toolkit, however, if you are changing the name of your programme, you will need to invest more in the customisation and communication assets to align these to your local programmes.
