Resources/Links

Reviewed by Erica Dennison, Senior Care Manager

After carefully reviewing the current web site links, suggested links and other interesting links, we have identified seven categories of links that we find to be credible and very informative. There are many links on the web that are full of misinformation and false claims, and in the case of healthcare, these are dangerous. It is best to suggest links that are backed by credible sources and that also link up to a hospital, government agency or an organization. We have found the following links to be credible and helpful for the purpose of our clients and our company. There may be overlap between these sites (as expected), however, each site has unique features and facts. All the information on these websites is intended to help our clients and our staff make intelligent and well-informed decisions.
