Do you want to employ more evidence in your practice, but lack skills in searching for and retrieving evidence-based studies? This live Zoom course, targeted to nurses and allied health professionals, will give you the skills to effectively use the Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health (CINAHL) to locate best evidence. Participants will learn to differentiate different evidence-based study types, formulate literature search queries, and use these queries to find best evidence in CINAHL.  After attending this session, clinicians will create their own search queries and use CINAHL to locate and retrieve evidence-based studies.
