Accessing the CHAMP Community Ask an Expert Blog

There are several ways to access the CHAMP Community Ask an Expert Blog:

• The easiest way is to navigate to the “CHAMP Community” page and then click the “Ask an Expert” link underneath the “Ask an Expert” title and picture at the bottom of the page.

• The Ask an Expert blog can also be accessed directly by typing or pasting the following URL into the address bar of your web browser: http://www.champ-program.org/champblog



Reading and Browsing the CHAMP Community Forums

Once on the CHAMP Community Ask an Expert page, you will see the latest five blog posts on the first page. To read older posts, you can choose to browse by either month (such as July 2009) or category (such as Medication Management) by using the navigation on the left side of the page. You can also choose to use the “Search” feature to find content and comments from old posts.



Adding a Comment to an Ask an Expert Post

If you’d like to add your own view, experience, or opinion to a post, or ask a follow-up question, you can add a comment to the end of any Ask an Expert post by clicking the “Comments” link at the bottom of each post.


On the next page, you will be redirected to the bottom of the page, and if you are logged in, you will see the Add a Comment text box. Type your content into the text box, and when you are ready to publish it to the end of the blog post, click “Post Comment”, and it will now be viewable by the Expert and all site visitors.
