Why is it important?

ENS4Care will support the exchange of information and experiences among different partners and will provide an overview of the range/type of eHealth services currently being used for prevention, in order to extract knowledge on the use of eHealth applications as tools to enhance healthy lifestyles that will boost prevention in healthcare from a life circle approach. There is evidence showing how to strengthen the role of nursing in the reshaping of the healthcare systems that, with the right knowledge, skills and opportunities, nurses and social care workers are uniquely placed to act as a health coach and to help prevent Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs), by supporting healthy lifestyle. The guidelines will therefore look into how nurses and social care workers could use eHealth services and technologies to boost prevention in healthcare.
