Home Literature Searching

Literature Searching

Library staff will support you to develop a strategy and enable you to carry out a search for evidence-based resources.

Mediated searches

We also provide a literature search service for staff who may not have time to search for information themselves. This means that we can do expert searches for CHS staff.

SBAR Literature Search / Evidence Search Request form

Complete this form for Library staff to carry out an expert search for you. If you are a student we can show you how to search NHS resources on your topic area
  • SBAR: Situation-Background-Assessment-Recommendation technique provides a framework for communication between members of the health care team Source: adapted from Taunton and Somerset NHS Foundation Trust
  • We will provide a summary of the evidence findings, including links and attachments. We will prioritise which articles are most promising based on request given. The results included are likely to be biased towards white, Northern hemisphere patients, and might therefore omit important information for racially minoritised patients.

Contact us with your search topic or to book a literature search session chs.libraryenquires@nhs.net
