The NIGHTINGALE Project trains nurses in healthcare information systems and nursing informatics across Europe. It develops multimedia courseware and disseminates knowledge freely via a World Wide Web server.

Area of Science:

  • Nursing Informatics
  • Healthcare Information Systems
  • Educational Technology

Background:

  • The European Commission initiated the NIGHTINGALE Project in 1996 to address the need for training nurses in healthcare information systems.
  • A 36-month project duration was allocated for developing and implementing a comprehensive training strategy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a strategy for training the nursing profession in the use and application of healthcare information systems.
  • To promote the harmonious education and training of nurses across Europe in the emerging field of nursing informatics.
  • To facilitate the appropriate use of telematics infrastructure in European healthcare.

Main Methods:
