Guide to non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma launches on new European health website
IMR International Limited, developers of e-communication and clinical information solutions, today announced the launch of a comprehensive guide to non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma within its new public health portal; www.epgpatientdirect.org.
The non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma Quick Guide will join other interactive guides to form part of the EPG Patient Direct interactive knowledge 'library'; a range of online guides designed specifically for use by the general public. Contained within the resource is an overview of non-Hodgkin's, its various types and stages, information about how it is diagnosed and treated, expert commentaries and links to other valuable sources of information on the disease.
"The Quick Guide is intended to break down medical language barriers and raise patient awareness" said Michelle Kelly, Partnership Director for EPG Patient Direct "In doing so, the resource will empower the patient, aid better communication with health professionals and facilitate understanding of treatment options and possible outcomes.
"We recognise that today's patients are more informed than ever before, but they still face an overwhelming challenge in sourcing health-related information that is comprehensive, trustworthy and easy to understand" said Chris Cooper, Managing Director of IMR International Ltd. \"The internet offers fantastic potential for individuals to research their own, or a family member\'s condition, but at the moment there are some huge drawbacks; finding good information takes time and even when you have found it, it can be hard to verify the voracity of the information. By working with partners in healthcare, we are connecting patients and their carers with information and advice that is independent, authoritative and objective." Sanctioned by the European Medical Association and produced by IMR International Ltd (www.epghealthmedia.com), EPG Patient Direct is dedicated to providing the general public in Europe with a credible source of independent health-related information. Further information about the website in general, its content and partners, can be found at www.epgpatientdirect.org
