Health Logbook of Medical Care
Every once in a while we run across and idea that's just to good not to share. That's the case with two new publications from April and May Publishing. The publications are health logbooks for medical care "designed for the Socratic at heart and the optimistically involved," for children and adults. Written by Albuquerque physician, John Liljestrand, the logbooks give patients a specific tool to keep track of their own health information. In addition to keeping track of history and medications, the books also give patients a place to organize their questions and concerns prior to their visit. The logbooks seem like an invaluable tool for families and caregivers -- when a patient is seen alone, the logbooks can be used to transmit information back and forth between the caregiver an the doctor.
