Hi,
I am PHP developer new to drupal development. I want to create a site for hospital management having following features.
- The hospital has various branches and each branch has to managed by employee of that branch
- Each hospitals will have their own specialties or treatments,doctors,events or programs, career openings etc
- The end user can browse the site ,can make an appointment for doctor or for a treatment.
My concern is how do I make this various branches for the hospital entity and then give individual user to manage each branch, is it possible with using just CCK and views or should I use any other modules or should i look into Drupal multisite feature??
I tried finding any solution on Google and drpal but couldn't find any satisfactory answers.
Please can someone the modules that i can use on the site like this.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Content Access -
Content Access - http://drupal.org/project/content_access lets you restrict roles to specific content types. Branches could be a content type and then you can setup different roles for each brach and assign the mangers the correct roles.
Thanks
Hey thanks for the reply , but I have decided to use Organic Groups for achieving this. I found this article which helped me decide it
http://www.palantir.net/blog/multi-headed-drupal . But I wanted to ask one more thing , as per the site designs there are many elements/blocks that will require jquery plugins like slider or accordion etc. Is it advisable to write our own code to achieve this or use any drupal modules for it. I have gone through some module either they are beta or donot generate markup as required. Thanks in advance
