NHS staff make a multitude of health and care decisions every single day. The challenge of ensuring these decisions are based on the latest insight married with decades of evidence and research is being met head-on with the arrival of a brand-new online search.
Health Education England (HEE) has introduced the new NHS Knowledge and Library Hub as a ‘one-stop’ gateway which, for the first time nationally, connects NHS staff and learners seamlessly to a significant range of free, high-quality knowledge and evidence resources, services, databases, all in one place.
Each trust has a tailored view of the Hub. Your library team has worked with HEE to ensure that when our staff use our version of the Hub includes links to all locally-funded resources as well as nationally funded resources.
Content includes:
- journals, books and e-publications
- one-click access to full-text, request a copy or ‘ask a librarian’
- clinical decision support tools
- NICE pathways and guidelines
- databases like Medline, EMBASE and CINAHL
Whether searching for published knowledge and evidence for
patient care, management decision-making, education, research, or just
professional curiosity, the NHS Knowledge and Library Hub is set to become the
starting point for every search; powering the bright minds of health
professionals, students and trainees and ensuring they can be confident that
the care they deliver is based on the most up-to-date information possible.
Start
your search and login via NHS OpenAthens to access your full-text
resources. For more help contact the Health
Library trainers or the eResources librarian.
