Enlarging a Medical Actor Profile Ontology with New Care Units

摘要

One of the tasks towards the definition of a model for a home care system, is the definition of the different roles of the users. The roles indicate which actions and services perform each type of actor. In this paper we present an ontology for representing the nuclear home care actors and their associated information. To make it scalable and incremental, the ontology is prepared for including the knowledge of additional care units. To work with this model a tool called ISA has been developed. ISA allows the medical users to define new care units without the necessity of knowing the ontology structure.
