Hi guys, here I am again asking for your help, I was asking before which nursing topics are the best to choose to start a research on but now i have to do a review of related study, I have no idea where to start looking, do you have any suggestions for online journals, I was thinking of Herbal Medicine topic, but I still dont know specifically what herbal meds, so can you please help me on how to start researching for related studies on herbal meds? I think im getting redundant so ill stop ^_^...thank you so much!!!!....

Oh yeah, my professor wants me to place the methodology, scope, etc. of the study and I have no idea what she means, I think maybe this means I need articles that are actual nursing research study, with hypothesis and objectives and methodologies and all that...
