Internet sites in GALILEO

We are able to add program specific web sites to GALILEO. This makes GALILEO - with the link to our card catalog, the databases that come with GALILEO- a one stop location for finding information that will support the learning that is going on in each program!

We just added two sites to GALILEO for the Allied Health programs (the two sites will be visible on Saturday).
  • The CDC Wonder <http://wonder.cdc.gov/> provides a single point of access to a wide variety of reports and numeric public health data.
  • The National Health Information Center <http://www.health.gov/nhic/> NHIC puts health professionals and consumers who have health questions in touch with those organizations that are best able to provide answers.

Both these sites will benefit our nursing students as they look for ways to help patients!

You can get the password to use GALILEO at home from your local library in Georgia!
