"Knowledge management" for health: what "tools" can improve the performance of workgroups, clinicians and patients?
This paper is a vision paper presenting a framework that describes a set of integrated "tools" for supporting "knowledge management". These "tools" span technical, organizational and human story telling. The framework is based on the authors' involvement in many research projects, the literature and conversations sounding the issues.
