 Welcome
to the University of Maryland Medical Center's Patient Resource Center
(PRC). The PRC is a place where patients, families and the public can
get information about a variety of health topics. These computer workstations
are designed to help you find the health information you're looking for
on the World Wide Web.
You can also use our computers to create a free patient Web page to
communicate with friends and family. UMMC is an official sponsor of CaringBridge,
an Internet service developed to help patients and their families stay
connected with loved ones during medical treatment. Click

Below are links to University of Maryland Medical Center's
(UMMC) programs and services and educational resources, all of which are
found on UMMC's Web site (www.umm.edu). There's also a list of other recommended
resources, which include trusted government and nonprofit health organization
sites but is not an all inclusive list. If you have any questions
about the information you find on these Web sites, please contact a PRC
staff member and/or check with your healthcare provider.
While the Patient Resource Center does not give specific
medical advice, we do offer information to help you better understand
your health and any health problems. Specific medical advice will not
be offered, and the Patient Resource Center asks you to talk with a qualified
healthcare provider for answers to your personal questions. |
