Digital health and education for health professionals

[摘要] The use of digital technologies for health has evolved into an inescapable form of intervention at all levels of health care practice. Digital Health, in all its complex interdisciplinary forms, has become both routine and innovative as it develops rapidly to meet the needs of the public, using technology from a growing number of fields, while inherently becoming a driving force for cutting edge technology. It offers promising interventions in health promotion, disease prevention and care in any given population. I would go further to suggest that the literal explosion of digital media and the welcomed global invasion of social media, has created an urgent demand for health professionals who are able to use and leverage new and emerging technologies to enhance personalised health care.
