With the growth of technology and the rapid uptake of digital innovations in healthcare, it is only logical for us as student nurses to become familiar with and proficient in digital skills. This book, perfectly summarises the importance of the digital world, how it supports nursing practice, its potential and how we as professionals, can use it safely and effectively. I think it is an essential asset to every student nurses bookshelf!
This text is very useful in describing the essential digital skills for nurses. I Especially liked the chapter on digital creativity, which prompts students to think outside of the software and used their creative skills to broaden their capabilities when working with both digital softwar and members of the public. While it did not sit well within this programme, it does sit very well in an upcoming programme that has been developed and will be rolled out in September 2025, called Digital Health and will be one of the recommended reading in this programme.
This book provides an insight into what competencies nurses should have in the technology arena.
