Point of Care Tools

Point of care tools are research and reference resources that a clinician can use immediately at the point-of-care with a patient. They contain searchable summaries of evidence that clinicians can access quickly and easily to help them make evidence-informed decisions when they need them and are updated regularly and synthesise all the best and latest evidence on clinical topics to aid with diagnosis and treatment. Available through the NHS Knowledge and Library Hub.
