	About the Collaborating Centre of the Joanna Briggs Institute at NUH The Joanna Briggs Institute and the Evidence-Based Nursing Unit at NUH signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) in 2008 to establish the NUH Centre for Evidence-based Nursing in Singapore. The centre collaborates with the nursing academia from National University of Singapore’s Alice Lee Centre for Nursing Studies (ALCNS) to excel and advance nursing clinical studies and provides opportunities to introduce evidence-based practice to the undergraduate and postgraduate students through their studies and clinical practicum. The establishment of this centre will have significant benefits to our patients who will receive best evidence-based quality nursing care and increase the capacity of nursing workforce to become competent users of research findings. This centre will be the gateway for propagating the JBI mission of evidence-based healthcare to the nursing community in Singapore. About National University Hospital (NUH) The National University Hospital (NUH), a member of the National University Health System (NUHS), is a tertiary hospital that provides advanced, leading-edge medical care and services. Equipped with state-of-the-art facilities as well as dedicated and well-trained staff, the NUH is a major referral centre that delivers tertiary care for a wide range of medical and dental specialties including Cardiology, Gastroenterology & Hepatology, Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Oncology, Ophthalmology, Paediatrics and Orthopaedic Surgery. It is the principal teaching hospital of the NUS Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine. With combined resources from the teaching hospital and NUS Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine and Faculty of Dentistry, the NUH is meeting the healthcare needs of patients, training future generations of doctors more effectively, and helping to develop solutions to our healthcare problems through research. In 2007, the NUH was tasked by the Ministry of Health to develop two new national centres, the National University Cancer Institute, Singapore (NCIS) and the National University Heart Centre, Singapore (NUHCS) to meet the growing needs for cardiac and cancer treatment. The National University Cancer Institute, Singapore (NCIS) offers a broad spectrum of cancer care and management covering both paediatric and adult cancers. The National University Heart Centre, Singapore (NUHCS) brings together cardiac specialists and experts from a multitude of medical and surgical disciplines to provide a comprehensive and holistic approach to the treatment of heart problems. In 2004, the NUH became the first Singapore hospital to receive Joint Commission International (JCI) Accreditation, an international stamp for excellent clinical practices in patient care and safety.
