The Institute has partnered with allied health organisations to help uplift digital health capabilities.
The Australasian Institute of Digital Health is developing a suite of courses designed to bridge what it calls “critical gaps” in digital health capabilities within allied health organisations, it says.
“Elevating the capability and confidence of the allied health workforce is essential for the future of healthcare,” said AIDH CEO Anja Nikolic.
“By equipping our professionals with the necessary digital skills, we can ensure they are prepared to meet the evolving demands of the healthcare sector.
“The digital maturity of our healthcare workforce is currently inadequate and uneven. By addressing these disparities through targeted training and partnerships, we can create a more cohesive and effective healthcare system.”
