UNCG Libraries Webinar: UpToDate for Clinical and Patient Education

Are you in a health profession? Or are you a member of the general public who goes to Dr. Google for health information? Either way, you’ll be interested in learning about UpToDate. This library database has clinical care summaries, advice for health care providers in many specialties, drug and interaction information, and patient education materials.  This presentation will explain how to access UpToDate (a free UpToDate registration is required, in addition to current UNCG log in credentials). The session will also show UpToDate content and features.  UNCG has UpToDate access for all current students and employees with an iSpartan account, with institutional access funded until May 2028.  While UpToDate summaries are written by physicians and other health care professionals, this database is not intended as a replacement for care and advice from one’s own health care provider.
