Objectives:
To explore how clinical educators integrate digital tools in teaching and patient care and identify challenges and strategies influencing their digital competence.
Methodology:
A qualitative exploratory study was conducted from October 2024 to August 2025. Using maximum variation purposive sampling, postgraduate clinical educators (≥2 years' experience) across various specialties from three tertiary care hospitals of Islamabad, Pakistan were interviewed after informed consent. Data was transcribed and thematic analysis was done.
Results:
Three themes emerged: (1) Impact of Digital Tools-confidence and teaching influence; (2) Barriers and Challenges-technological constraints and resistance; (3) Sustainable Practice-emotional readiness and institutional support.
Conclusion:
Clinical educators showed varied digital competence. While digital tools offer significant potential to enhance learning and patient care, they also introduce contextual challenges, highlighting the need for institutional support and professional development for sustainable digital integration.
