Promoting and strengthening digital health literacy is a key responsibility of the BDIH – KTBW. Target-group-specific offerings for members of the public and healthcare professionals play a key role in this effort. To support this, the BDIH-KTBW has developed a new format that enables multipliers to borrow practical demonstration tools and, for example, integrate them into community information sessions.
Promoting and strengthening digital health literacy is a key responsibility of the BDIH – KTBW. Target-group-specific offerings for members of the public and healthcare professionals play a key role in this effort. To support this, the BDIH-KTBW has developed a new format that enables multipliers to borrow practical demonstration tools and, for example, integrate them into community information sessions.
As part of its projects to promote and strengthen digital health literacy, the Bosch Digital Innovation Hub (BDIH) – Coordination Office Telemedicine Baden-Württemberg (KTBW) has developed various loan formats featuring practical demonstration tools. These formats enable multipliers to borrow digital health solutions free of charge and test them in everyday settings.
By making digital solutions accessible, the initiative supports multipliers in strengthening participation in the digital world and promoting equal opportunities in healthcare, particularly for vulnerable groups such as older people. The learning and hands-on experience offered by these formats aims to reduce barriers to using digital applications, build confidence in digital healthcare services, and promote safe and competent use.
There are three different loan formats designed for different target groups. DigiKompAss – Digital Competence to Borrow, Experience and Train is aimed at multipliers in the community, such as digital health ambassadors, LandFrauen and senior citizens’ councils. The DigitalHealth Backpack is designed for representatives of the healthcare professions and is available in two different configurations.
Examples of tools included in the loan formats:
