A new category for web sites aimed at providing patients and the general public
with information on health care is being added to the BMA's Patient Information
Award this year. The aims of the award are:
to recognise good quality patient information sources on the world wide web
to encourage the development of such sites
to promote the use of web sources by the general public and by doctors with
their patients
to draw attention to the need to apply critical appraisal skills to web based
resources
The award is open to any developer of a web site. This may be an organisational
site, a subject based site or it may be a personal home page or an image-based
or multimedia resource. Electronic journals and magazines, newsgroups and
discussion lists, databases, current awareness services and FAQs will not be
considered.
