Web-based technology plays an important role in everything we do, including caregiving for our aging parents and for ourselves. The Internet allows us to collect information about health and medical conditions, review medications and treatments, and even research physicians. But how do we know if the information is accurate and current? Learn to search and evaluate web-based health resources effectively. Become a more informed advocate by using online tools to gather accurate medical information and partner with healthcare professionals in managing your parents’ and your own health.
