Journal Title：Informatics For Health & Social Care

Informatics for Health & Social Care promotes evidence-based informatics as applied to the domain of health and social care. It showcases informatics research and practice within the many and diverse contexts of care; it takes personal information, both its direct and indirect use, as its central focus.

The scope of the Journal is broad, encompassing both the properties of care information and the life-cycle of associated information systems.

Consideration of the properties of care information will necessarily include the data itself, its representation, structure, and associated processes, as well as the context of its use, highlighting the related communication, computational, cognitive, social and ethical aspects.

Consideration of the life-cycle of care information systems includes full range from requirements, specifications, theoretical models and conceptual design through to sustainable implementations, and the valuation of impacts. Empirical evidence experiences related to implementation are particularly welcome.

Informatics in Health & Social Care seeks to consolidate and add to the core knowledge within the disciplines of Health and Social Care Informatics. The Journal therefore welcomes scientific papers, case studies and literature reviews. Examples of novel approaches are particularly welcome. Articles might, for example, show how care data is collected and transformed into useful and usable information, how informatics research is translated into practice, how specific results can be generalised, or perhaps provide case studies that facilitate learning from experience.

《健康與社會護理信息學》致力于將基于證據的信息學應用于健康與社會護理領域。它展示了信息學在眾多不同的護理背景下的研究和實踐；它以個人信息（包括直接和間接使用）為中心焦點。

該期刊的范圍很廣，既涵蓋了護理信息的屬性，也涵蓋了相關信息系統的生命周期。

對護理信息屬性的考慮必然包括數據本身、其表示、結構和相關過程，以及其使用背景，突出相關的溝通、計算、認知、社會和倫理方面。

對護理信息系統生命周期的考慮包括從需求、規范、理論模型和概念設計到可持續實施以及影響評估的全方位考慮。特別歡迎與實施相關的實證經驗。

《健康與社會護理信息學》旨在鞏固和增加健康與社會護理信息學學科的核心知識。因此，該期刊歡迎科學論文、案例研究和文獻綜述。特別歡迎新方法的例子。例如，文章可能展示如何收集護理數據并將其轉化為有用和可用的信息，如何將信息學研究轉化為實踐，如何將具體結果推廣，或者提供有助于從經驗中學習的案例研究。

Informatics For Health & Social Care創刊于1976年，由Informa Healthcare出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋衛生保健 - 醫學全領域，此期刊水平偏中等偏靠后，在所屬細分領域中專業影響力一般，過審相對較易，如果您文章質量佳，選擇此期刊，發表機率較高。平均審稿速度 12周，或約稿 ，影響因子指數2.5，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預警名單，廣大學者值得一試。
