August - focus on new self-health books

This month we had a number of books added to the Self-Health collection here in Pinewood House.  These may help you with a condition or situation but they are also for you to recommend to patients if you think they would benefit from them.  They are aimed at the lay person.  Some of our children's books were so usefu to our community children's team that they bought copies to use.  So come in and take a look

Remember - ALL staff and students on placement can join the library.  Just bring along your ID badge.
