It is essential to use Zero to Finals for its intended purpose: as a resource to help students and health professionals prepare for exams. It is not intended and should not be used as a resource, guideline or reference for clinical practice or decision making. It is certainly not designed for patients looking for medical information or advice. There are plenty of excellent resources for the above, not least your senior colleagues, guidelines, research papers or personal doctor. By using the Zero to Finals resources, you agree that Zero to Finals and those involved in creating the resources are not responsible for any actions you take or do not take based on the information provided.
The skills needed to practice medicine, surgery, and other healthcare roles are broad and complex. There is a limit to what you can learn from one resource. You need to develop clinical judgment, experience and context-specific decision-making skills that cannot be learned in one place. It is crucial to develop your ability to find the best resources and data to guide your clinical practice. Attend clinical placements, listen to your tutors and supervisors and ask for help. Use a variety of up to date guidelines, protocols, research and other resources when preparing for exams and treating patients. Nothing alone is entirely reliable and accurate.
I employ extensive effort to ensure the information is accurate and up to date. However, it is not perfect, and research, guidelines and best practice are constantly changing. There will be errors despite my best efforts. I would be very grateful if you point them out when you find them. Do not accept anything as fact without questioning it.
