We can help - CASE STUDY AT STOKE-ON-TRENT PUBLIC HEALTH

The Health Library can help you in many different ways. Here is an example from our NHS Outreach Service.

Activity:
A literature search was carried out to find information on the topic of repeat child protection proceedings. A scoping search was performed to gather search terms. These were used to systematically search across five databases. The citations of the documents were also hand searched in order to locate further documents. The results were collated into a report which contained full text access to the relevant documents, wherever possible.

Purpose:
To support and inform the development of local programmes through the gathering of information on existing initiatives.
