Online Guides for Searching the Healthcare Databases

Below are video tutorials and guides on how to search the healthcare databases via the Ovid and EbscoHost platforms.

The main databases are distributed between the two platforms, so you will need to know which platform to access
to find the database you wish to search.

  • OVID platform supports PsycINFO, Embase, Emcare, Medline, HMIC and Social Policy and Practice.
  • EBSCOhost platform supports CINAHL, Medline, and the Psychology and Behavioral Sciences Collection
