Better Knowledge, Better Care: Video Animations (NHS IQ BKBC)
Possibly also of interest, and presented with a disarmingly “light touch”, NHS IQ have released four free animations on the value of knowledge, and Knowledge Management (KM) in health and care. The four animations are:
- What is knowledge?
- Knowledge through the ages.
- Introducing knowledge management.
- Better knowledge, better care.
