The Cochrane Collaboration is an international non-profit and independent organisation, dedicated to making up-to-date, accurate information about the effects of healthcare readily available worldwide. It produces and disseminates systematic reviews of healthcare interventions and promotes the search for evidence in the form of clinical trials and other studies of interventions.
The Cochrane Nursing Care Field (CNCF) is coordinated from Adelaide, Australia and consists of eight Nodes with members from over thirty-five countries across the world. The CNCF has a ‘hub and spoke’ model in which the Field is coordinated centrally and supported by nodes. Central coordination is provided from a dedicated unit within the School of Population Health and Clinical Practice at the University of Adelaide.
Membership of the Field is open to consumers of nursing care, nurses, formal and informal carers, other healthcare professionals, researchers and others involved in the delivery of nursing care.
