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 EU-founded WISECARE Project.

The goal of WISECARE is to exploit systematically 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 patients.

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 and evaluated, and more based on principles of evidence-based care.
