Healthcare practitioners and managers increasingly find themselves in clinical situations where they must think fast and process myriad diagnostic test results, medications and past treatment responses in order to make decisions. Effective problem solving in the clinical environment or classroom simulated lab depends on a healthcare professional's immediate access to fresh information. The healthcare practitioner must learn to effectively manage knowledge while thinking on their feet. Knowledge Management (KM) holds the key to this dilemma in healthcare, placing value on the tacit knowledge that individuals hold within an institution and making use of IT to free up collective wisdom. This book explores the nature of KM in contemporary healthcare institutions, providing readers with an understanding of approaches to the critical nature and use of knowledge by investigating healthcare-based KM systems. This book demystifies the knowledge management process and demonstrates its applicability in healthcare, offering contemporary and clinically relevant lessons.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
Aus den Rezensionen: "... Die Aufgabe ist gewaltig, zumal in jeder Klinik, jedem Labor und jeder Praxis anderes Wissen gefragt ist. Die Beitrage des Sammelbandes machen klar, dass dies zwar moderner Informations- und Kommunikationsmittel bedarf, aber weit mehr meint, als die schlichte Implementierung teurer EDV-Losungen. ... Aufschlussreich ist der Band vor allem deshalb, weil er mit der internationalen Debatte vertraut macht. ... das Buch versammelt Perspektiven von Autoren, Theoretikern und Anwendern - aus zehn Staaten. Wissen gibt es schliesslich uberall." (http://www.e-health-com.eu/service/rezensionen/index_10645.html)
