COVID-19 Resources

The volume of information – and mis-information – on this coronavirus is overwhelming. The UHN and Michener library team are collaborating with partners across our organization to curate reliable, authoritative sources of information, to facilitate knowledge mobilization, to enable our institutions to deliver the best health care, to provide the best education, to conduct the research to end this pandemic.
On this site, you will find some high level resources relating to the latest science of COVID-19, educational resources to support you in “upskilling” to critical care, or to help you if you are deployed to clinical areas in which you don’t usually practice.

This collaborative UHN and Michener guide lists resources for educators who are transitioning to online teaching and adapting new strategies to combat the impact covid-19 has had on learners. This includes: remote and online teaching, clinical teaching, teaching using simulation, online teaching resources list, and teaching materials.

How can we quickly prepare faculty for transition to online teaching? What about alternate clinical sites? How can we support students? Dr. Valerie Howard answers these questions and more. Learn FAST (Faculty, Alternate clinical sites, Students, Technology).

This database includes a list of resources with toolkits for healthcare professionals including: community care, ambulatory care, emergency care, inpatient care, ICU, mental and behavioural health.

BMJ’s covid-19 hub supports health professionals and researchers with practical guidance, online CPD courses, as well as the latest news, comment, and research from BMJ. The content is free and updated daily.

This resource helps researchers and learners assess data associated with the developing epidemic and in general. It asks leaners to develop a system of critical appraisal and systematically evaluate clinical research papers by asking: does this study address a clearly focused question? Did the study use valid methods to address the question? Are the valid results of this study important? Are the valid important results applicable to my population?
