Pulse — Free Clinic & Hospital Website Template
Pulse is a free, single-page Bootstrap 5 template for multi-specialty clinics and hospitals, built around a real online appointment-booking form as its centerpiece. It skips the usual navy-and-orange brochure look for an airy white layout with a cobalt-indigo and coral palette and an ECG heartbeat motif. Everything is self-hosted with no jQuery, icon fonts, or external dependencies.

How to use it
Download the ZIP, unzip it, and open index.html — no build step, nothing to install. Edit the text and images, point any forms at your backend or a form service, and deploy the folder to any static host. Colours and fonts live in css/style.css; the interactions are in js/main.js.
Frequently asked questions
Is Pulse really free for commercial use?
Yes. Pulse is free for both personal and commercial projects, so you can launch a real clinic or hospital site with it. The only condition is keeping the small "Free template by uiCookies" credit in the footer. There is no separate license fee or paid tier to unlock.
Does the appointment form actually send bookings?
The form validates input, blocks past dates, and shows a friendly confirmation message entirely in the browser. It has no backend by design, so nothing is stored or emailed out of the box. You wire the submit handler to your own EHR, HubSpot, Calendly, or a plain email endpoint to make bookings live.
Can I edit Pulse without a build tool or coding?
Yes. Pulse is a single static HTML page with plain CSS and one small vanilla-JavaScript file, so there is no npm install, bundler, or compile step. Open the HTML in any editor to swap text, images, and links, then upload the files to any host. Basic HTML familiarity helps, but there is no framework to learn.
How do I change the colors and fonts?
The cobalt-indigo and coral palette is driven by CSS variables at the top of the stylesheet, so recoloring the whole site is a matter of editing a few values in one place. The type pairs Lexend and Mulish from Google Fonts, loaded in the page head. Point those two links at different families to restyle every heading and paragraph.
Is Pulse responsive on phones and tablets?
Yes. It is built on the Bootstrap 5 grid and tested to reflow cleanly from large desktop screens down to small phones. The header collapses into a mobile menu, and the department grid, doctors row, and booking form stack for narrow viewports. No separate mobile file is needed.
Which browsers does it support?
Pulse works in all current versions of Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge. It relies on standard Bootstrap 5 layout, CSS variables, and modern vanilla JavaScript, all of which are widely supported. It does not target legacy Internet Explorer.
What exactly is included, and does it need any external libraries?
You get one complete home page with a sticky header, hero, departments grid, why-choose-us split, doctors row, appointment form, animated stats band, testimonial slider, and an insurance and hours section. Bootstrap 5 is self-hosted and all icons are inline SVG, so there is no Font Awesome or icon-font request. The only external calls are Google Fonts, which you can self-host too, making it friendly to strict-CSP hosts.
What makes Pulse different from other free medical templates?
Most free clinic themes default to a dark navbar with teal or navy-and-orange accents and treat booking as an afterthought. Pulse goes the other way with an airy white layout, a cobalt-indigo and coral palette, and an ECG heartbeat line running through the design. The appointment form is the centerpiece, complete with a next-available-slot card, live-wait badge, and count-up stats.
