First Consult
Do you need evidence-based answers to clinical questions
at the point of care? Have you been unable to get answers
because you did not have online computer access or a Wi-Fi
or 3G/4G data connection? The First Consult iPhone/iPad
app is your solution. The app allows First Consult’s trusted
answers to be stored on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
A data connection is required for the initial content download
and content updates, but is not required to use the app itself
– making First Consult’s answers available anytime,
anywhere.
