AnnotationCHESS - the Comprehensive Health Enhancement Support System - is an important model for how stand-alone computer systems can help patients' family caregivers cope with Alzheimer's disease and other health problems. Whilst information on Alzheimer's disease may well be provided by other sources on the Internet, unregulated Web sites will be unfocused and variable in their quality, and may advocate services of dubious value.
