Time: 09:00 - 13:00

The International Council of Nurses has supported the International Classification for Nursing Practice (ICNP) for over 25 years. ICNP is a standardized terminology that represents the things that nurses see and do. ICNP also represents a harmonising framework, bringing together other nursing terminologies, integrating a nursing concepts into multidisciplinary terminologies and ensuring that nursing is adequately represented in today's health systems.

In this masterclass, facilitators from the ICNP development team will use real-life examples and draw on recent case studies to outline the history of ICNP, describe its evolution, explain its structure, describe its relationship with other terminologies, provide practical advice on implementation and explore with attendees how they might leverage ICNP-encoded data to meet their specific needs.

Activities and group discussions will complement and consolidate learning, ensuring that attendees leave with knowledge that is both practical and useful.
