In response to challenges associated with extensive documentation practices within the NHS, this paper presents the outcomes of a structured brainstorming session as part of the Chief Nurse Fellows project titled 'Digital Documentation in Healthcare: Empowering Nurses and Patients for Optimal Care." Grounded in Dr. Rozzano Locsin's theory of "Technological Competency as Caring in Nursing," this project leverages a Venn diagram framework to integrate Digital Maturity Assessment (DMA) results with the "What Good Looks Like" (WGLL) Framework, the ANCC Pathway to Excellence, and the eHospital EPR program vision of University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust. Participants, including Clinical IT facilitators and nursing leaders, engaged in identifying synergies and gaps across digital proficiency, nursing excellence, and patient-centric care, contributing actionable insights towards an optimized digital patient care model. The findings emphasize the need for holistic digital solutions that enhance documentation efficiency, support staff excellence, and improve patient outcomes.
