abstract = "Background: While the need for self-management support is increasing in the current aging European society, digital skills and competences in supporting self-management is not commonly a part of the nursing curriculum. In order to respond to this societal challenge, the Digital Nursing Model (DigiNurse) will be developed by an international consortium, offering a structured concept to be incorporated in the nursing curriculum.

The final goal is to develop a digital interface to be used by nursing students in the follow-up of patients with chronic diseases, guided by the key-principles of the DigiNurse Model. Objective: To reflect on the different theoretical contributions that supports the creation of digital interfaces to develop digital skills/competences in nursing students and professionals. Conclusion: The development of digital skills in nursing students is important for the follow-up of patients with chronic diseases. So, the analysis of different models will support the development of DigiNurse Model, whose implementation in educational and pedagogical models in nursing curricula can contribute to significant improvements in health care of patients with chronic illness.",

So, the analysis of different models will support the development of DigiNurse Model, whose implementation in educational and pedagogical models in nursing curricula can contribute to significant improvements in health care of patients with chronic illness. Funding Information: However, in Europe, there is not a conceptual model for learning digital skills in nursing higher education institutions, nor any organized collaboration around the topic [1]. To address this issue, an international consortium composed by five nursing higher education from Portugal, Finland, Slovenia and Belgium is currently designing the framework of the DigiNurse Model. This challenge was recognized and financially supported through the Erasmus+ program, through the Key-Action “Cooperation for Innovation and the Exchange of Good Practices”.
