I had the privilege of attending a digital government conference in Westminster, October 13th and was grateful to have an opportunity to speak to a member of the UK Government backed Centre for Data Ethics and Innovation. 13th. We discussed the issues of professional competences (educational outcomes for undergraduate health professionals. I am suggesting personal health data processing has mandatory undergraduate education in six domains for all health and social care professionals.
Six key domains of competence and associated learning outcomes were identified and defined. External expert review provided iterative refinement and amendment. The agreed domains were:
1) Digital Health: work as a practitioner in the digital healthcare environment;
2) Accessing Data: access and interpret patient data to inform clinical decision-making;
3) Communication: communicate effectively with healthcare professionals and patients in the digital environment;
4) Generating data: generate data for and about patients within the EPR;
5) Multidisciplinary working: work with healthcare professionals with and alongside EPRs; and
6) Monitoring and audit: monitor and improve the quality and safety of healthcare
