or may be collections of research studies, reports, articles and/or findings that are not specifically called databases. Please note: Individual journals and journal

articles do not meet the criteria for a research database, and therefore, do not qualify for this assignment. Specifically note that you CANNOT use Medline/PubMed,

CINAHL, or Scholargoogle for this assignment.

important to you.Choose a topic of interest to you that is a significant clinical nursing issue

3)Review each database or collection to gather information to create a description for the assignment. Each description must:
• identify the title of the research database;
• describe the location of the research database in a way that a reader could find it. This could be a URL or an APA citation;
• name owner or publisher of the source;
• describe the research database. This must be in your own words and not copied and pasted from the original source. Include the purpose of the database and the

subject matter it covers. This may be four or five sentences; and
• explain how the research found in the database relates to your topic of interest. This may be an additional paragraph, perhaps two or three sentences.

Describe (in your own words) the research database or collection of research including the purpose and the subject matter it covers:
The Joanna Briggs Institute is an international not-for-profit Research and Development Organization that provides evidence-based resources for healthcare

professionals in nursing, midwifery, medicine, and allied health. Those with membership are able to obtain evidence-based practice information from systemic reviews,

evaluation reports, electronic journals, best-practice information, and consumer healthcare information.
Explain how the source relates to your topic of interest:
JBI is relevant to my topic of interest because it provides reports, systemic reviews, journal
Articles, and best-practice information on current issues in healthcare. Hospital
readmissions are a major issue in healthcare. The database had several resources
addressing the problem of hospital readmissions and identifying strategies for
improvement.
