The project captures applied materials that rarely appear in books or scholarly journals—reports, trainings, white papers, blogs, podcasts, videos, demonstrations, presentations, surveys, narratives, and more—content that clinicians, educators, and organizations produce daily.
Applied Nursing and Allied Health delivers current, evidence-informed material, critical for research and teaching, but missing from traditional resources.

A living index that links to the full text—and preserves it
Coherent’s index links to the full text of each item. There are hundreds of thousands of items, with new content added continually—this is a living database that will continue to grow and provide unmatched currency from over 500 organizations worldwide.
The materials in Applied Nursing and Allied Health are curated specifically for academic use in clinical education, fieldwork, skills-based learning, and applied research.
Each item links back to its original source, supporting engagement with the originating organization.
To ensure reliability and long-term access, every item is assigned a stable, persistent identifier, allowing users to cite content with confidence. Coherent Digital also preserves backup copies of materials (with permission), ensuring continued access if original websites change or disappear—so there are no more broken links in syllabi, assignments, and research.
