Synopsis

This guide is designed to support a wide range of health professionals - in the public, commercial and voluntary sectors - to develop the quality and impact of the information they produce. Fully updated in line with the latest developments in new media such as CD ROMs and the internet, the guide also shows how to use traditional media, such as print, to the best advantage. The work offers a step-by-step guide to each stage of the information process, from developing an information policy, to writing and eisseminating print and electronic materials. Designed to be read through, dipped into or used foro reference it includes: section-by-section overviews and action points; information boxes that pull together additional useful facts; case studies and practical illustrations; further reading and useful contact listings; and a detailed index. Aimed at clinical and non-clinical staff working in the NHS - in acute and primary care settings - and to allied health professionals, it will also be of interest to voluntary organisations and university departments specialising in health care, pharmaceutical companies and health communications agencies.
