On the Map (of Medicine)


You may have heard mutterings recently about the Map of Medicine.

The Map of Medicine is an online clinical knowledge tool that contains over 300 evidence-based clinical pathways. The Map consists of flow charts following the pathway from Primary through to Acute Care where relevant. It links out to the National Library for Health and BNF. Clicking on the accredited tick will display the strength of the evidence presented by that particular pathway.

Modified versions of some pathways are already being made available to patients via the NHS Choices website.

NHS staff in London can now access London Map of Medicine using their Athens username
and password. You can self register for this via any NHSNet computer.







Please have a look and let us know how you get on.
