Medicine: NHS Evidence Searching

A course specifically for NHS staff.

Attendees will learn how to search databases (such as CINAHL or Medline) accessed with an Athens login via the NHS Knowledge & Library Hub. The session will cover how to define & refine your search question, apply effective search techniques and how to save searches and references. This course is delivered at an introductory/refresher level, and assumes you have had no prior training in how to search databases.

All attendees are required to have an NHS Athens login.

Please email librarytraining@medschl.cam.ac.uk to be added to the class. The session will take place via Teams and participants will be sent a link prior to the session.

University of Cambridge staff and students wanting to learn similar material should book onto the Introduction to Literature Searching (for University) course instead.

NHS staff working in Addenbrooke's Hospital, or elsewhere in the East of England region.
