Question:
If anyone out there is using the Time Life Medical series (Time of
Diagnosis) for patient education would you please let me know what you
think? We're getting ready to select videos for digital patient
education system and would like feedback. Also, any recommendations for
excellent patient education videos would be appreciated. One area that
we're having a particularly hard time with is relaxation/stress
reduction stuff - there's so much to choose from!
Answer:
The library of Western Career College use the Time Life Medical series in our Medical Assisting Program and
find them excellent for our program. They are geared for patient
education and are organized and interesting with great overview of medical
subjects for our students. We do not have a whole set and I spent weeks
trying to locate the company for ordering information. I finally found out
the Time Life Medical department no longer exists. We also are constantly
on the lookout for good basic medical videos that don't cost an arm and
leg.
