Wisecare: Work Flow Information Systems for European Nursing Care

The way telematics and information technology is used for the management of oncology care is the primary focus of the EUfounded-WISECARE project. The goal of WISECARE is to systematically exploit clinical nursing data for clinical management, resource management and knowledge sharing. Clinical management focuses from a nursing point of view on determining the outcomes of patient. Resource management focuses on the right use of staff competencies. Knowledge sharing focuses on the creation of a learning environment. The overall result is that by using IT, nursing practice is felt to be more benchmarked evaluated and more based on principles of evidence-based care.
