Abstract:
The demand for knowledge in nursing has increased due to new care requirements, but there's a lack of suitable digital knowledge platforms. For this reason, the PflegeWiki is being developed as part of the CARE REGIO collaborative project in Germany. It provides care-related content for nursing professionals, trainees in the nursing professions, students and informal caregivers in Germany. The following paper aims to establish a standardized procedure for the development of a wiki and its content. Based on a target group specific quantitative online survey and literature research, the content and design of the PflegeWiki as well as an evaluation procedure for the contributions were identified. Relevant content is generated by external authors as well as the project team itself. All submissions are evaluated by an editorial committee based on evaluation criteria. The PflegeWiki could provide a platform for the acquisition of knowledge in order to support everyday care.
