Printed CareSearch resources: Tell us what you think Did you know that CareSearch has a range of print resources that health professionals and the community can order online and have mailed to them free of charge? If you have ordered any of our resources, we’d love to hear if they have been of value and some of the ways in which you have used them. This feedback will help us know if they are hitting the mark and what we might do differently. You can send us your thoughts on our resources via email caresearch@flinders.edu.au or select the ‘Yes’ option against ‘Would you be willing to provide feedback’ on the order form when you place your next order with us.
