A key priority for our NMAHPs’ Strategy is to lead the digital healthcare agenda, using technology to improve patient safety, clinical practice and most importantly patient experience.
It’s also important to improve your experience of using the technology.
Our Digital Priorities

- To empower nurses, midwives and allied health professionals to shape and drive digital transformation through education, leadership and support
- To explore and implement new innovative digital technologies to provide safer effective care for our patients, freeing up time to care and improve patient outcomes
- To embrace how pioneering digital technologies can enrich clinical judgement and decision making supported by real time reporting and
- To explore the use of artificial intelligence and advanced devices to enhance communications, interactive digital collaboration and sharing of knowledge

Delivering our digital priorities together
To help us be the best we can be we want to work together to enhance your daily digital experience.
We want to get it right first time so that when you document something it is automatically reflected throughout the electronic patient record.
What matters to you
We asked what was important to you – you said that you want to be able to do your job efficiently and safely with more time freed up to deliver greater hands-on patient care – to feel supported to adopt new ways of working using technology whilst continuing to use your own clinical judgement.
Many of you also said that you want to find it easier to become an innovator – we will generate a creative culture giving staff the right tools and gain confidence.
We are proud to represent our NMAHP colleagues to make sure all changes made in collaboration with you can enhance patient care, safety and your experience – this is key to ensure as professions we develop in our digital maturity whilst not losing sight of clinical judgement.
We are here to engage with and support staff through all digital transformation with a regular presence in clinical areas.
