The NHS is undergoing a significant transformation as it moves from analogue to digital systems. The transition away from paper-based records, manual processes, and legacy systems presents both opportunities and challenges. While digital solutions have the potential to enhance efficiency and patient care, their success depends on how well NHS staff are prepared and supported throughout the change.
To ensure that NHS professionals are at the centre of this transition, FEDIP and HPCA are launching the “Are We Ready?” campaign—a three-part webinar series followed by a final roundtable discussion. These discussions will provide a forum to explore what digital transformation means for NHS professionals, identify key challenges, and ensure that staff preparedness remains a priority in shaping future policy and practice.
Through interactive discussions and post-webinar surveys, this campaign will gather insights that directly contribute to a national NHS Digital Transformation Report and Best Practice Guide.
