NHS Evidence

The data base I researched today is called NHS evidence. This database was created as a melting pot for medical information and new and cutting edge evidence in the medical field. This database provides free access to clinical and non-clinical medical infromation on small scales and large scales. The website was created for nurses, pharmacists, librarians, allied health proffesionals and more. One thing I thought was really neat was the users ability to registar then the database sends them updates in their area of work or intrest. This database saves searches and even small parts of searches like a sentence or paragraph the user found helpful or interesting. You can also rate entries that fall under your searches with a star system ranging from very helpful to useless. The searches bring up different sources like journals, articles and books. I thought that was neat because it would give someone maybe writing a paper many differnt sources especially if the prof. requires so many book sources or a certian number of article sources and so on. This site took me a little bit to figure out but all in all it is very useful.
