This self-study course gives you a basic understanding of digitalisation and artificial intelligence (AI) in nursing: the foundations and drivers of digital transformation, digital care documentation, telecare and telemedicine, technical assistance systems (ambient assisted living, AAL), robotics, the basics and applications of AI, data protection and data security, ethical questions, digital competence, and the opportunities, limits and person-centred use of technology – so that nursing staff understand the technology, use it competently and critically, and keep the person at the centre.

Course objectives:

  • Understand digitalisation in nursing and its drivers
  • Know digital applications (documentation, telecare, AAL, robotics)
  • Understand the basics and applications of AI in nursing
  • Take data protection, data security and ethics into account
  • Develop digital competence and a critical approach
  • Use technology in a person-centred way

Self-study without supervision, assignments or evaluation of learning progress by instructors; the voluntary self-reflection is for your own orientation only. Your confirmation of participation becomes available once you have marked all modules as done yourself.
