Professional nurses are not limited to bedside care and are taking roles of greater responsibility. A nurse should have a knowledge-based practice, including personal, theoretical, procedural, cultural, and reflexive knowledge. Additionally, nurses must be competent in cognitive, technical, interpersonal, and ethical/legal skills. Some of the best attributes of successful nurses include the following:
Communication skills: These are critical characteristics, especially speaking and listening.

Implementation is the execution of the nursing care plan developed during the planning phase.
The five steps to implementing effective nursing care include reassessing the patient, reviewing and revising the existing nursing care plan, organizing the resources and care delivery, anticipating and preventing complications, and implementing nursing interventions.

Summary
Nurses
Area of Science:
- Digital Health
- Nursing Informatics
- Healthcare Technology Adoption
Background:
- Digital health technologies (DHTs) are increasingly integrated into healthcare, improving patient care and reducing costs.
- Nurses, the largest healthcare workforce, frequently use DHTs at the point-of-care (POC), requiring continuous adaptation.
- Limited research exists on nurses' digital health competencies and their impact on technology use.
Purpose of the Study:
- To explore factors influencing registered nurses' competency in using digital health technologies (DHTs).
- To identify influences on nurses' adoption and use of point-of-care (POC) technologies.
- To understand the role of the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) in DHT competency.
Main Methods:
- A scoping review was conducted using Arksey and O'Malley's methodology.
- Searched academic databases for peer-reviewed studies published between 2014 and 2024.
- Included studies focused on registered nurses, DHTs, POC technologies, and digital health competency, excluding undergraduate students and pre-2014 publications.
Main Results:
- 20 studies were reviewed out of 1513 identified articles.
- Demographic, psychological, practical skill, and organizational factors significantly shape digital health competency.
- Younger, educated nurses adapted quickly; experienced nurses utilized clinical knowledge. Organizational support and training are crucial for sustained use.
Conclusions:
- Strengthening nurses' digital health competencies at the point-of-care is vital for contemporary healthcare.
- Interventions targeting DHT competency enhancement are needed to improve patient outcomes.
- Further research should investigate effective strategies for improving nurses' digital health skills.
