Abstract

The digital transformation of health and care started accelerating around 2016, but leapt forward unexpectedly forced by the Covid-19 pandemic [1]. Successful digital transformation of health and care require an appropriately skilled workforce. 'Digital skills' have become a burning issue in workforce development discussions, research, Governmental strategies and policies world-wide. With these, there has also been a hike in published frameworks intended to support digital working by healthcare staff. The purpose of this study has been to make sense of the different frameworks developed to support work in a digitally enabled context, specifically in healthcare; to understand who and what they are for, what their intended purposes and the shared elements across frameworks are. Unlike previous reviews [2], this report focusses on frameworks purposed for active use around the world.
