DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Rural Hospital Electronic Library of Michigan (RHELM) Project was conceived in February 2002 and brought to fruition in October 2002 with IADL funding. Synergy Medical Education Alliance (formerly Saginaw Cooperative Hospitals, Inc.) partnered with three rural hospitals to provide them with electronic resources to search for medical, nursing, and consumer information online. Synergy Medical is a health care provider and medical education corporation that provides undergraduate and graduate training to medical students and residents in our on-site clinics and acute care affiliated hospitals. We provide continuing medical education (CME) to physicians locally and within the region. Our outreach program is the primary source of medical information for 15 rural hospitals and health departments in the East Central Michigan Region. Information is requested by a contact person at each rural site and forwarded to the outreach coordinator at Synergy Medical. The request is processed within 24-48 hours of receipt and faxed or mailed to the requestor. The goal of the RHELM Project is to provide access to electronic resources at the point of care, thus eliminating the 24-hour + time factor from the equation. With IADL funding we received in 2002 we have provided three of the rural hospitals in our region with computer equipment and have completed the web site for electronic resources. We began training staff and employees in PubMed searching in May 2003, and will cover MedlinePlus, Toxnet, StatRef and CINAHL over the next few months. We are applying for another IADL grant so we can partner with two additional hospitals and a public health department and add them to our group of RHELM users. To attain this goal, Synergy Medical will purchase and install the necessary computer equipment and make the RHELM web site available to the new users. We will train the medical staff and employees to search online, and conduct follow up in the form of user satisfaction surveys. RHELM web address: http://www.rhelm.org.

描述（由申请人提供）： 密歇根州农村医院电子图书馆（RHLM）项目于2002年2月构思，并于2002年10月在IADL的资助下实现。协同医学教育联盟（前萨吉诺合作医院公司）与三家农村医院合作，为他们提供电子资源，以便在网上搜索医疗、护理和消费者信息。Synergy Medical是一家医疗保健提供商和医学教育公司，为我们的现场诊所和急诊附属医院的医学生和住院医生提供本科和研究生培训。我们为当地和区域内的医生提供继续医学教育（CME）。我们的外展计划是密歇根州中东部地区15家农村医院和卫生部门的主要医疗信息来源。每个农村研究中心的联系人都要求提供信息，并将其转发给Synergy Medical的外展协调员。申请在收到后24至48小时内处理，并传真或邮寄给申请人。RHELM项目的目标是在护理点提供电子资源，从而消除24小时+时间因素。利用我们在2002年收到的国际反歧视法协会的资金，我们向本地区的三家农村医院提供了计算机设备，并完成了电子资源网站的建设。我们于2003年5月开始培训PubMed搜索的员工，并将在未来几个月内涵盖MedlinePlus，Toxnet，StatRef和CINAHL。我们正在申请另一个IADL补助金，这样我们就可以与另外两家医院和一个公共卫生部门合作，并将它们添加到我们的RHELM用户组中。为了实现这一目标，Synergy Medical将购买和安装必要的计算机设备，并向新用户提供RHLM网站。我们将培训医护人员及员工进行网上搜索，并以用户满意度调查的形式进行跟进。RHELM网址：http://www.rhelm.org。
