Digital Health Therapeutic Innovation: Clinical Practice for Nurses and Mental Health Professions (en Inglés) - Rhonda Lynne Wilson

This book is reshaping digital clinical practice worldwide. It equips graduate students in nursing, mental health nursing and mental health professions with the evidence based knowledge and practical skills needed to deliver safe, effective, and scalable digitally enabled care. Anchored in the latest research, it offers clear guidance on supporting person centred, technology driven approaches that promote mental, physical, social, and emotional wellbeing across the life span.

The rapid expansion of digital health—propelled by global public health and mental health priorities and accelerated by the COVID 19 pandemic and global geopolitical instability —has transformed the way therapeutic services are designed, delivered, and accessed. While technological innovation has advanced at unprecedented speed, the preparation of a workforce ready to implement these tools has lagged behind. This book addresses that gap by bringing together international, nurse led digital health innovators and clinicians who bridge the divide between technological development and everyday therapeutic practice.

Organised into four major sections, the book follows a consistent chapter structure grounded in sound pedagogy. Each chapter introduces foundational concepts through motivating, accessible explanations, then deepens understanding by examining core theoretical principles and appraising the current evidence base. The final component of each chapter translates this knowledge into clinical practice, presenting implementation strategies, real world examples, and case studies that illuminate the practical realities of digital therapeutic work.

Featuring contributions from experts across the globe, this is an essential resource for emerging professionals seeking confidence, competence, and contemporary expertise in digital health practice.
