More and more people are turning to preventive health care and utilizing available resources to become better educated about medicine today. Hundreds have found help through the hospital's Educational Services department which houses the hospital's official Medical Library, accredited CME program, and a community and continuing education center for the public.
The Medical Library includes a broad spectrum of textbooks and publications, as well as an extensive collection of journals in the health sciences for use by physicians, hospital employees and the public. Assisted searches are provided. A photocopier is available for a low 10 cent per page fee.
