Announcing the release of a new learning guide on our online portal. The ‘Developing medical guidelines’ guide focuses on assessing your patient groups suitability for medical guidelines and walks through the different steps of developing medical guidelines alongside NICE guidance. Check it out if you are interested in understanding what medical guidelines do, how they can benefit your patient population and how you can create them.
