Clinical Tools and Products













Clinical Corners

Welcome to AMDA's Clinical Corners. Articles, tools, resources, lists of products and publications (including clinical practice guidelines [CPGs] and tool kits for implementation of the CPGs), and web resources/links are available at the click of a mouse to help you meet the challenges of providing quality health care to the long term care population.

For sites that are sponsored by manufacturers, AMDA has an oversight policy for approving materials posted on the clinical corners site. The materials are sent to the chairs of the Clinical Practice Committee and Clinical Practice Guideline Steering Committee for review. Once both chairs grant approval, we post them. If there are any hesitations or questions, we then send out the material for review to the entire Clinical Practice Committee for comment. We then go with the majority consensus. Relevant materials are added by the approval of the committee chairs.

We welcome your suggestions and ideas for individual clinical corners improvements or additional information and future topics. If you have any ideas, suggestions, or future topics, please email us at ca@amda.com.
