Resources Matrix

There are a number of resources available to professionals and consumers in the health care industry. The following matrix is designed to help you organize these resources. Identify at least six valid consumer health care resources, six valid professional health care resources, and three health care resources that can be utilized by both consumers and professionals.

Sites you may find useful include licensing organizations, federal or local health organizations, or association sites—such as the American Medical Association. Other research can be done by searching journals, textbooks, or your health care provider.
