Abstract :
The notion of incorporating knowledge management (KM) in the healthcare sector has recently witnessed a lot of interest, both from healthcare practitioners and scholars. Because KM for healthcare has just started to appear on the radar of healthcare stakeholders, there exists very limited research (particularly empirical data) to guide healthcare stakeholders, both from an academic and organizational perspective. This paper attempts to contribute to the adoption of KM in the clinical and healthcare sectors by collecting and analyzing data on technological, organizational and managerial perspectives on KM in these sectors. This paper provides an analysis of a case study which looks at current practices towards healthcare information management
