As we move into an era of always-near, always-on digital technologies the role and skills of nurses are set to transform in ways that are both anticipated and unexpected. In this keynote speech, author will examine future scenarios of digitally-augmented pediatric nursing, drawing on innovations that are already being integrated into work practices and what may be around the corner. Using examples from both high and low income countries, she will examine the potential for mutual learning, innovation transfer and skills augmentation which may improve the efficiency, effectiveness, affordability, accessibility, integration, honesty and empathy of healthcare.
