e-Learning for Healthcare

The e-Learning for Health hub houses many modules created specifically for the NHS.  IOW NHS staff can now register using OpenAthens credentials.  The registration process again requires you to log in with OpenAthens and then create an e-LfH user account.  It can be slightly puzzling to locate the modules you need, but the modules themselves seem straightforward and practical.  There are instruction pages on the website, but if really stuck do ask in the library for help.
