Digital Transformation in Healthcare: Redesigning Clinical Workflows, Skills and Education
This session examines how emerging digital health technologies, such as artificial intelligence, clinical decision support systems, automation, data platforms, and remote care solutions, are rapidly transforming healthcare delivery, often outpacing the digital literacy and preparedness of clinical staff.
The session explores how digital transformation goes beyond technology deployment to fundamentally reshape clinical workflows, decision-making processes, and professional roles.
Speakers will address the affected care pathways, the required skills and competencies needed for digitally enabled teams, the role of healthcare organisations and academic programmes in identifying emerging workforce needs.
The session also focuses on translating these needs into effective training pathways and curricula. A dedicated case study of the DS4Health project illustrates how structured needs assessment and curriculum design can help bridge the digital literacy gap and support the development of future-ready clinical teams.
