For Nursing resources, go to the library's Nursing databases (link below).  

To access these databases, log in with your College of the Mainland username and password.  

Using CINAHL Ultimate databases as an example, I searched 'in patient' and 'nurse concerns' (without quotes). After limiting to Full Text articles and Scholarly (Peer Reviewed Journals) there were over 600 articles that matched those search terms. The next step is to add some search limits, Subjects: Major Heading filter to narrow your search results. There are other options to use as limiters, such as date of publication, the age range of the patients, geography (e.g. United States, Great Britain, other countries and even some individual states).

These and similar searches can be done in our other nursing databases. It is also a good idea to try to think of other words that may define what you are looking for, e,g, nursing or nurses, instead of nurse. I am also adding a link to our Nursing guide, which may give you some additional resources for your search.
