Week 1 Assignment: Useful blogs and RSS feeds for healthcare professionals in the field of Child's Health

The Child's Health Specialist Library ( CHSL) addresses a range of topics related to the health and well being of children. To keep up to date with What's New in the CHSL, why not subscribe to the RSS feeds.

Visit Dr Gwenn's Blog. Dr Gwenn has developed a blog in line with her day to day practice as a paediatrician. She provides an interesting article on flu vaccination for children, and provides data as to the reluctance of mothers to vaccinate.

Medical Feeds is a directory that enables you to locate medical related RSS feeds with minimal effort. Users can enter a search term or browse the directory. There are 17 separate feeds relating to paediatrics, a number of which provide fulltext access to the most recent editions of paediatric journals.

I am impressed by your link to http://www.medical-feeds.com/index.php

At present I am barred from trying out the RSS Feeds within it, but it looks potentially good, as far as I can see.
