Abstract

Digitalization in healthcare and the increasing availability of data demand data literacy competences of nurses and other healthcare professionals including technical, ethical and communication skills. The international Spring School 2023 "Information in Healthcare - From Date to Knowledge" aimed at these competences covering interoperability, data protection and security, data analytics and ethical issues. These topics were embedded in the overall case of data-driven quality improvement for diabetes patients in a region. The curriculum includes an online preparation-phase and a five-days attendance week, incorporating problem-based and group work approaches. According to the studentt's evaluation, the awareness of the importance of the topics was raised and theoretical as well as practical application skills were improved. The Spring School enhanced data literacy competences, critical thinking, problem-solving, interprofessional und intercultural skills among healthcare professionals. Such course offering can contribute to meeting the increasing challenges of digitalization in healthcare.
