Hack and malware cleanup is included free on Complete. On Care and Growth, it's available as a one-off service from $499 CAD, depending on severity, and is usually finished within 24 to 48 hours. How hack cleanup works
How We Protect and Maintain Your Practice's Website
Patient Form Data Stays Private and Secure
New patient intake forms, appointment requests, and contact forms on your site collect personal health information and contact details. A security breach doesn't just expose data. It erodes the trust patients place in your practice. We enforce SSL encryption, harden form plugins, monitor for vulnerabilities, and keep your WordPress core patched so patient submissions are protected from collection to delivery.
Appointment Booking That Works Every Time
When a patient tries to book a cleaning, consultation, or follow-up through your website and the form fails, they don't try again. They call the next practice that shows up on Google. We keep your booking plugins updated, tested after every WordPress release, and monitored for downtime so your schedule stays full and your front desk isn't overwhelmed with calls from a broken online system.
A Professional Appearance That Builds Confidence
Patients choosing a new dentist, physiotherapist, or family doctor look at your website and make a judgement within seconds. Broken layouts, missing staff photos, or an outdated design signals that your practice might cut corners elsewhere too. We keep your site polished, functional, and visually consistent so it reinforces the professional trust your patients expect.
PIPEDA-Aware Updates and Data Handling
Canadian healthcare practices operate under PIPEDA and provincial privacy legislation that governs how personal information is collected and stored. While no WordPress plugin replaces legal compliance, we update your site with privacy in mind, ensuring form plugins don't store data insecurely, that your privacy policy page stays accessible, and that third-party scripts aren't silently collecting patient information without consent.
Accessibility Monitoring for All Patients
Your patients include people with visual impairments, motor difficulties, and other accessibility needs. A healthcare website that can't be navigated with a screen reader or keyboard fails the people who need your services most. On our Complete Plan, we monitor for common WCAG issues (missing alt text, poor colour contrast, unlabelled form fields) and flag them in your monthly report so your site serves every patient.
Why Healthcare Practices Choose Us
We Treat Patient Data With the Seriousness It Deserves
We don't just run updates and hope for the best. Every plan includes malware scanning and SSL maintenance, and Growth and Complete add a web application firewall. For healthcare sites, we pay extra attention to form security, file permissions, and login hardening, because the information flowing through your site carries a higher duty of care than a typical business website.
Downtime Means Empty Chairs and Lost Revenue
A dental practice with 10 hygienists needs a steady stream of bookings to stay profitable. When your online booking goes down for a weekend, Monday morning is chaos, and those lost appointments often don't get rescheduled. Our uptime monitoring and fast response times keep your booking pipeline flowing without interruption.
Your Website Is Often a Patient's First Impression
Before a patient walks through your door, they've already evaluated your practice online. They've read your staff bios, checked your services, and looked at your office photos. If your site is slow, broken, or looks neglected, they've already moved on to the practice down the street. We make sure that first impression is the right one.

Common questions about WordPress maintenance.
How do you protect patient form data?
Ambrite enforces SSL encryption, hardens form plugins, monitors for vulnerabilities, and keeps your WordPress core patched. We pay extra attention to file permissions, login security, and form encryption because healthcare sites handle data that carries a higher duty of care.
Do you handle PIPEDA compliance?
While no WordPress plugin replaces legal compliance, Ambrite updates your site with privacy in mind, ensuring form plugins don't store data insecurely, your privacy policy page stays accessible, and third-party scripts aren't collecting patient information without consent.
Do you monitor for accessibility issues?
Yes. On Ambrite's Complete Plan, we monitor for common WCAG accessibility issues (missing alt text, poor colour contrast, unlabelled form fields, and keyboard navigation) and flag them in your monthly report so your site serves every patient.
What if our appointment booking system breaks?
Ambrite keeps your booking plugins updated, tested after every WordPress release, and monitored for downtime 24/7. If your appointment system goes down, Ambrite catches it and restores service before it impacts your schedule.

Ambrite's WordPress maintenance plans start at $49 CAD/month for the Care Plan. The Growth Plan at $99/month adds a speed audit with caching and image optimization. The Complete Plan at $199/month includes PIPEDA-aware updates, accessibility monitoring, and priority support.
