Elsevier, a world-leading provider of scientific, technical and medical information products and services, today announced that ClinicalKey for Nursing has been adopted by more than 30 hospitals and healthcare facilities across Asia Pacific, including Australia (Western District Health Service), Singapore (SingHealth), India (P D Hinduja National Hospital & Medical Research Centre) and Thailand (Thai Red Cross). ClinicalKey for Nursing is a clinical reference platform that provides trusted, authoritative content, tailored to meet the unique needs of nursing professionals. It was made available in Asia Pacific late last year and has also been adopted by more than 50 leading healthcare institutions globally since its launch.
Powered by Smart Search technology, ClinicalKey for Nursing brings the most clinically relevant answers from Mosby’s Nursing content to the top of search results, including evidence-based nursing monographs, books, journals, practice guidelines and core measures with nursing recommendations.
It has been designed with extensive research on the search behaviours and content preferences of nurses, such that it becomes a natural extension of the way that nurses work. It can be integrated with existing electronic health records (EHR) in hospitals, and is optimized for mobile devices and tablets, making it easily accessible to improve speed and accuracy of care.
“Nurses require specialised clinical information, and ClinicalKey for Nursing aims to meet that need by providing quick access to and meaningful use of clinical topics, patient education resources and much more. Nurses and nurse educators can also depend on ClinicalKey for Nursing to help their staff master new skills and deliver evidence-based care at every point,” said Elsevier’s Executive Vice President & Managing Director for Asia Pacific, Europe, Middle East and Latin America, Gerrit Bos.
