SO with the NHSE Training wing CD in the slot, my clinical workstation
now shows:-
Oxford Textbook of Surgery
Oxford Textbook of Medicine (both demos, a couple of chapters of each
and rather good)
Best Evidence 2 - had it for ages, and excellent and useful.
A web browser showing the Pinderfields system demo - great work Rory
The Cochrane Collection - 30 day time limited trial
A legacy clinical record system running fitfully in a DOS box
Idealist for WIndows with our local reference material
A letters outward program of my own devising showing patient letters
outward
and internal and external e-mail
It all seems to co-exist happily, but all these reference progs are
hypertext of one sort or another, and they are all slightly different.
Personally I can't see any huge benefits in any of them over using HTML
and displaying them in a web browser capable of showing several
documents at once (eg one copy of Opera or 3 copies of MS IE3 - 4 or
Netscape)
But the experience is enormously impressive and entertaining, and the
material has been relevant twice today.
Excellent CD, excellent resources on it, but I want:-
them all delivered as HTML
them all delivered over fast networked arrangements to every member of
my commissioning group /---> PCG
funding to buy the full versions, or free subs mediated by bulk deals
through the NHS.
