As you search in databases, book catalogs, and on the web, always think about the words you are using in your search and see if you can use other words that mean similar things. For example:
Health and Communication
In addition to using "health" try other words like "doctors" "nurses" "physicians" "patients" "hospitals" "medical personnel" etc.
In addition to using "communication" try words like "discourse" or "talk" or "conversation" etc.
