How do I find an article written by a nurse?

Answer

The CINAHL database lets you specific that the main author, or one of the authors, should be a nurse.  To do this, before doing any searching, scroll down under the Limit your Results section for all of the advanced options.  One checkbox option is labeled "First author is a nurse," which means the main author would be a nurse.  Another option, "Any author is a nurse," means just that, at least one of the multiple authors of an article is a nurse.

See the below screenshot for where this option is located.
