Elsevier, the information analytics business specialising in science and health, has been awarded an NHS Wales Tender for Point of Care tools.
Elsevier's e-resources, ClinicalKey and ClinicalKey Nursing, were accessible from October 1 to all 92,000+ NHS Wales staff, including clinicians and health professionals, contract holders, community pharmacists, dentists, and hospice workers; students on placement and departments of Welsh Government. This follows an expansion of the NHS Wales e-Library for Health which is managed by NHS Wales Informatics Service.
ClinicalKey and ClinicalKey Nursing will be available to all NHS Wales staff instantly from within the NHS Wales network through the e-Library intranet site and via OpenAthens from home or public Wi-Fi via the e-Library internet site.
The e-Library is aimed at supporting effective healthcare delivery by providing evidence-based, relevant, and timely information to NHS Wales staff. This expansion of the e-Library will ensure it continues to improve learning, education and training culture, service, research and development, and innovation within NHS Wales.
