The internet for inexperienced social workers and healthcare staff

August 17th, 2009 by Malcolm Payne


The social sciences website Intute offers online tutorials on how to use the internet in various usbjects. They’re mainly for students, but anyone might find them useful and they’re easy to use. The ‘links basket’ approach allows you to collect up places you might go on the internet to find things (and if you’re researching other professions, it might be good to look at their tutorial as well as your own):

social work: http://www.vts.intute.ac.uk/tutorial/socialwork/

nursing: http://www.vts.intute.ac.uk/tutorial/nursing/

medicine: http://www.vts.intute.ac.uk/tutorial/medicine/

A further new St C’s pic. You’ve seen this from reception in a previous pic, the new Anniversary project where people coming into the hospice can fester in a Starbuck’s style environment and wait for the appointments, day centre, other facilities or chill out:Social space to entrance
