European strategies for training in health information systems.
The Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe recently adopted a recommendation on training strategies for health information systems. The main elements were: specific adaptation of training both to the wider health care setting and to the individual work situation; training provided on a multidisciplinary basis; involvement of local health care, educational, research and commercial establishments; setting up of a network of reference centres to facilitate rapid exchange and harmonisation at national and European levels.
