The origin of the phrase "an elephant never forgets" refers to observations that elephants follow the same paths, and even hand down genetic memories, of directions and places across generations. Each elephant clan has a certain burial place, and always help the dying ones get back there if they are not killed traumatically first.
We think elephants are pretty amazing. If you don't have the memory of an elephant, RememberItNow! can help.The World Health Organization has spent considerable time defining what is meant by the term eHealth. "eHealth is the combined use of electronic communication and information technology in the health sector.' It refers to the health care components delivered, enabled or supported through the use of information and communications technology. It may involve clinical communications between healthcare providers such as online referrals, electronic prescribing and sharing of electronic health records. It can also provide access to information databases, knowledge resources and decision support tools to guide service delivery.
