Nursing & Health Topics in the News
There are many places to find articles written more for the general population than career nurses or health professionals. Some suggested websites and journals:
- New York Times - Health sectionCreate an account using the directions linked below, then you can browse the Health section.
Sign up for New York Times Online Access
UMass Amherst Libraries have purchased access to the New York Times Academic Pass program for the UMass Amherst campus. To register for your academic account to the New York Times, you'll need a UMass Amherst email address.
Follow the Registration instructions on our New York TImes Online guide to set up your account.
Up To Date Mobile Access
Mobile app available for UpToDate!
Before you can use it, you must first Register on the UpToDate homepage. I made a video and created step-by-step written instructions on the whole process.
After you create an account with UpToDate, you can download the mobile app (available for iOS and Android).
Log in with the UpToDate username and password you created, and you are ready to go!
You will get an email every 90 days prompting you to verify your account to renew your mobile access. This means that you need to log back into the web version of UpToDate (linked above) to reset the timer.
