Latest BMJ Best Practice Login Instructions

There have been various problems recently around logging in to BMJ Best Practice; so far this seems to be working OK:

  1. Go to the NHS resources page on the Health Library website here https://www.keele.ac.uk/healthlibrary/find/healthinformationresources/
  2. Page down to the link for BMJ Best Practice and click it
  3. If you are prompted for an Institution enter "NHS in England". This should find an entry which you can then click.
  4. You should then be prompted for your NHS OpenAthens username / password - enter this
  5. If you have not logged on before you will be prompted to create a BMJ individual account - you must do this (this is used to allow you to save content and use the app)
  6. Then you should be in and you can start searching
  7. Instructions for setting up the app are here  https://infoskillsforhealth.blogspot.com/2019/10/bmj-best-practice-app-support-for.html (but you need to do the previous steps before you can get to the app)
If you still have problems please report to Cheryl (me), the eResources Librarian at the Health Library; and do the following:
  1. Let me know your NHS OpenAthens username
  2. Let me know which step above gives you an error 
  3. If possible send me a screen-shot of the error you get
