How similar is DIKW to the Nursing Process?

“In nursing, wisdom guides the nurse in recognizing the situation at hand based on patients’ values, nurse’s experience, and healthcare knowledge. Combining all these components, the nurse decides on a nursing intervention or action” 

(Topaz, 2013, p. 2).

 

This new definition reinforced the importance of the DIKW by "expanding the actions from management and communication of data, information, knowledge, and wisdom to include the precursors, identification, and definition. This change reflects the important role of today's informatics nurse in the full evolutionary transformation of data to information to knowledge to wisdom in nursing practice"

(Bickford, 2015, pg. 129)
