The internet and world wide web make it easier for professionals, patients and carers to access medical expertise and technology. Websites providing information about geriatric medicine and gerontology include those of general and specialized journals and textbooks--including publications on geriatric psychiatry, geriatric emergency medicine, nutrition, ethics and law and geriatric nursing--and those of professional and research organisations. Also of use are sites related to allied branches of medicine--particularly dementia, stroke, Parkinson's disease, pain and geriatric rehabilitation. Topic-based mailing lists facilitate discussion; in addition, some websites include discussions areas. Information specifically targeted at patients and carers is available at sites created by research charities and patient information and support groups.
