Link to databases on the NHS Knowledge and Library Hub

By

You can link to the databases straight from the Hub. Simply search for the database name and you’ll get an information card for that database, with a link straight to the database, saving you lots of time.

Typical databases to look for are Cinahl, Medline, Emcare and Embase. Or you could login to the Ovid platform to search more databases.
