Electronic research databases provider EBSCO has announced that from this month onward, the continuing education modules content found in the CINAHL Plus and Nursing Reference Center products are approved by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC). This accreditation is claimed to demonstrate CINAHL’s support for professional continuing education opportunities, as the modules are rigorously reviewed by objective standards.
The Nursing Reference Center has over 300 CE modules while the CINAHL Plus products have over 100. The continuing education modules are also still approved by IACET, the International Association for Continuing Education and Training.
CINAHL Plus provides indexing for 4,175 journals from the fields of nursing and allied health, with coverage dating as far back as 1937. The database offers access to healthcare books, nursing dissertations, selected conference proceedings, standards of practice, educational software, audiovisuals and book chapters, as well as Evidence-Based Care Sheets. Searchable cited references for more than 1,300 journals are also included. Full-text material includes nearly 80 journals plus legal cases, clinical innovations, critical paths, drug records, research instruments and clinical trials.
Nursing Reference Center is projected as a comprehensive reference tool designed to provide relevant clinical resources to nurses and other healthcare professionals, directly at the point-of-care. It provides in-depth content from top publishers covering areas including conditions and diseases, patient education resources, drug information, continuing education, lab and diagnosis detail and best practice guidelines.
