- provides a space for reflections on a HEALTH, SOCIAL CARE and INFORMATICS model that has universal potential in terms of application and users. If time permits you will find a current list and growing archive of highly eclectic posts about Hodges' model, its ongoing development plus items on education, conferences and computing. The website, on-line since 1998 needs a major overhaul. With this and more in mind I am (slowly) learning Drupal and Ruby.
