EUROPEAN UNION

•All Europeans want the best healthcare for themselves and their families. Yet Europe is ageing, putting immense pressure on healthcare systems which already account for around 9% of EU GDP.

•The health sector is, however, very information intensive, so advanced ICTs can make healthcare systems morecost-effective, allowing more funds to be spent on healthcare, and less on administering it. "e-Health" is therefore emerging as an important new global industry - an opportunity Europe's healthcare and ICT industries must not miss.

ACENDIO.NET

•The Association for Common European Nursing Diagnoses, Interventions and Outcomes is a membership organization established in 1995 to promote the development of nursing’s professional language and provide a network across Europe for nurses interested in the development of a common language to describe the practice of nursing.
