Discussion:
There are many databases the GCU Library offers for research and continues education. In evidence based practices, a nurse makes nursing judgement based on newer research and use of critical thinking abilities. The CINAHL database is one of the most popular and widely used by most researchers of nursing and health sector. The database has thousands of journals and titles and covers issues and topics on specialties in nursing mostly evidence bases research work. It has structured course outlines for continuous education and worksheets. The articles and journals found are mostly peer-reviewed (GCU,2017).
Another database is the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI), is well known for conducting nursing research. It contains articles in their thousands which have been strewn across seven different publication. These types include Evidence Summaries, Evidence-Based Recommended Practices, Best Practice Information Sheets, Systematic Reviews, Consumer Information Sheets, Systematic Review Protocols, & Technical Reports. (GCU, 2017) Newer trends in nursing are constantly being reviewed and researches for evidence based practice.I find these database more helpful than the Google and other Internet search engines because a lot of articles can be found in one place, more like a one stop shop, all related to health.
