NHS access to AMED has moved

 AMED is the Allied and complementary medicine database, providing abstracts covering subjects within allied health therapies as well as some nursing topics. This has previously been provided to NHS staff via the Ovid platform. Access to this database has now moved to the Proquest Dialog platform; note that this is different from the Proquest platform that we currently use for other databases.

AMED is provided by NHS England as part of the NHS core content collection. Proquest provide additional help to using their resources on this website.

All relevant links have been updated in the NHS Resources page on the Health Library website. You will need your NHS openAthens login to access this database.

If you need any assistance using this database please contact the Health Library training librarians library.healthlibrarytrainers@keele.ac.uk
