Description

Our current Point of Care tool is used by the Luton and Dunstable Hospital, covering gaps in service for clinical decisions. The tool will be used by clinicians to support and inform patient care, especially where rare conditions are presented in the hospital or community access locations.

We need a platform that is easily accessible, provides the fullest breadth of coverage, and displays synthesised and summarised evidence-based content, written by renowned subject experts.

As a University Hospital it is essential this product is recognisable to our users and that all content has been peer-reviewed. All content must be the latest available evidence on all subjects covered, easily referenced and with clear attribution of authors and date of publications.
