Please help with research / Nursing Journals

Published

Ok I am a first year nursing student and I am coming upon my first nursing paper. I have spent HOURS trying to find "good" nursing journal articles on poly pharmacy and the elderly and also Home falls risks for elderly. I have tried ebsco, proquest, and the works and I don't know what I am doing wrong! I am so frustrated and have no idea where to turn next....

Help please... what am I doing wrong... :crying2:

Thank YOU all for your input... I have found one article that meets all requirements!! Oh I never knew finding a silly article would be so fulfilling!

Don't know if it's too late, but I'm in the process of doing my first paper with RN peer reviewed articles also and found the ANA journal website helpful :)

Go to google.com and under one of the links at the top (maybe it says "More")- click on Google Scholar. Search your topic there. You can even select dates to make them current. Then once you find an article that looks like it may be helpful, you can go into your school's online journal library (since you still usually have to pay for the google scholar articles) and search under just that specific journal. My ex taught me that and it has saved me TONS of time!
