Check a central service description against local branch differences

A central page says the same service is available across the practice, but branches differ in format, hours or booking arrangements. Local pages quietly contradict the summary.

What to change

Define which facts are genuinely shared and which need local explanation. Keep the central description useful while directing visitors to the details that affect their chosen branch.

A worked example

Illustrative example

A service is offered at two branches, but one uses visiting-provider booking. The central page describes the service and clearly identifies the different booking route at that location.

How to check the result

A visitor can move from the overview to a branch without encountering an unexplained change in process.

A mistake to avoid

Do not copy the largest branch's content to every location merely because the service name is shared.

Your action checklist

Use these checks to prepare a discussion with your team or supplier. Tick a check when you have recorded the decision or evidence, rather than when a feature has simply been promised.
