Introduction to the Last Hours of Living is an article written about
the care of dying patients.
Due to copyright laws the article can not be post here. Clinicians can
sign up and get an account.
I don't know if they verify credentials, but some non clinicans have
registered.

I can email a copy of the article,  to anyone interested ( that is
allowed), so if you are interested send me an email.

It is really interesting they point that there are two roads to death,
an easy and harder path..

Since palliative care and hospice has been a topic here I thought I
would post, Alex

You can post the link to the article you mean (I think I did find it, or
something similar). Then anyone else can decide whether or not to register
at Medscape. I've been registered for several years (as a "consumer/other")
and get various of their newsletters as well as read articles I see
mentioned in assorted ngs & lists..

Credentials are NOT verified. Anyone can sign up for Medscape.

You don't even have to have any credentials.
One of the categories is consumer/other.

Right.......but that is only to access the site/information.  I am sure
there is far different criteria to have anything published.  Most
everything has credits etc., at the end of the articles.
The joining is also true of MedScape, Ivanhoe, Veritas, the MDAnderson
site., etc.  Does not let you input.  Just read.  What you do with the
information is up to you.  Courses of treatments evolve every day.  As
we know, the only sure things are death and taxes!

I thought we were talking about access to reading the articles.
Is someone asking about how to publish there as well?
