UpToDate clinical decision support tool

UpToDate is an evidence-based knowledge system that helps clinicians make the right decisions at the point of care. It contains over 11,000 articles, providing evidence-graded treatment recommendations as well as diagnostic and other information for common as well as rare conditions.

It is available to Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust staff and students, and can be accessed via the SaTH Intranet without a password. It can also be accessed off-site and via the UpToDate mobile app.

Health Libraries Midlands (HeLM)

We've moved to a new catalogue and borrowing system called HeLM (Health Libraries Midlands) that is used across many NHS libraries across the Midlands region.

If you had an active account on our old system, then you don't need to do anything and your library card number will remain the same. You'll still be able to borrow 16 items, and there will be five automatic renewals and no fines. 

Now, you'll also be able to request items from any of the 44 health libraries in HeLM and have them sent to Shrewsbury or Telford, giving you access to a much wider range of books. You'll still be able to use OmniSearch to search our complete catalogue of books and e-books. 

For more information visit our HeLM FAQ page.
