Nursing Knowledge Base
A living, LLM-maintained knowledge wiki for nursing education — built for the Nursing Citizen Development Organisation.

The LLM Wiki Pattern
"Raw data from a given number of sources is collected, then compiled by an LLM into a .md wiki, then operated on by various CLIs by the LLM to do Q&A and to incrementally enhance the wiki." — Andrej Karpathy
This tool adapts that pattern specifically for nursing education:
- Sources are clinical guidelines, NMC standards, and research papers
- The wiki is structured around NMC Proficiency platforms
- Q&A is grounded in UK nursing frameworks (NICE, NMC, NHS, BNF)
- Health checks flag clinical safety gaps and outdated content
Clinical Disclaimer
This tool supports but does not replace clinical judgment. Always verify with authoritative sources (BNF, NICE, local trust guidelines, NMC). This wiki is for educational purposes only.
